I didn't follow it closely... I think the conclusion is: Rewinding support isn't strictly necessary, there's a number of mechanisms in both git and curl that should make sure that those cases shouldn't surface. A few of them in curl have an unfortunate conincidence of bugs up until the latest version, though, leaving much fewer mechanisms in place to avoid this. Since that patch is quite non-intrusive I think it's a good safeguard, though. What do you think, Tay, keep it or leave it? // Martin -- 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
