I see from later in the thread, though, that implementing it is not as straightforward as we might hope. I would personally be fine with "--all-match" being the default, but that may be too big a change in behavior for some people to swallow (I would also be fine with log.allmatch in the config, but every time I suggest something like that people's heads explode and I get told to make an alias). -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
