Perhaps 'ls -l' view, i.e. 'link -> target'? But if we use different colors for tree entries and blob entries (and perhaps yet another color for symbolic links), it is impossible to mark all of them clearly as links. So I'd rather have redundancy, than hidden functionality (BTW. I hate MS idea of vanishing menu entries based on usage). -- Jakub Narebski Warsaw, Poland ShadeHawk on #git - 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
