Yes, I think you are right that the existence of pager.* does not necessarily imply that there should be a config option for grep. But that makes his example even more irrelevant: he is advocating that I use a solution in this instance because he uses it in another instance, when that solution is not even necessary in the other instance (and as I have hopefully already made clear, is in my opinion inferior). It is probably better to stay on the topic of the grep option, though. -Peff -- 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
