I do. If the stream is not being piped to a process the frontend started (maybe it's being sent over the wire to some fast-import service instead), what would feature report-fd=7 even mean? So we should discourage it, or better, forbid it now while we have the chance. By contrast, as you explained, feature relative-marks feature export-marks=MARKS1 is meaningful because without knowing anything about the underlying filing system, a frontend can rely on a later feature relative-marks feature import-marks=MARKS1 picking up where it left off. -- 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
