Indeed -n is used in many places for --dry-run, but it is not _the_ standard way. commit, push (as you identified), reflog, and send-email have --dry-run but -n is not a synonym for it. Some of them even use -n as a shorthand for a more often used option than --dry-run. So the justification should be more like "push does not any other option that deserves a short-and-sweet -n better, it will not have any such option in the future, and --dry-run is very often used that it deserves to use -n as its short-hand." I tend to agree with the first two points, but I am not sure about the third point. Do people dry-push that often? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
