Backward compatibility always is > a pain. I regularly rely on this behavior in my usage of git grep. For example, the Melange project has this layout: -- app -- app/soc -- app/django -- app/... etc -- scripts -- tests -- thirdparty I almost always want only results from "app/soc", so when I run git grep I do so from within "app/soc" to make sure I don't get false positives from the many external sources we have. Just chiming in for the "want to keep the current behavior" camp :). PS: I don't mind having to set a config variable to keep the current behavior though. -- Cheers, Sverre Rabbelier -- 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
