Avery, do you perhaps any additional insights wrt this > particular use case? Only this: Junio said that there are no major downsides to this change - and given the slow pace of change in gitk/git-gui, this is probably true - but are there any *upsides*? What problem does this solve? git-submodule and git-subtree solve different problems, so which one is "better" depends on the problem to be solved. As a mostly-just-user of git, whatever is currently being done is super convenient and easy for me and I wouldn't ask for any change at all. Obviously it might be very different from Junio's point of view :) Have fun, Avery -- 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
