As much as a person might dislike plumbing, plumbing is git's current stable API. Maybe the libgit2 project will come up with something better[1]. Until then, I am happy to have some commands that avoid user-friendliness niceties (like implied "HEAD") that would create pitfalls when scripting. Maybe it would be worth adding a plumbing example under the EXAMPLES for each porcelain? I can see that having to learn a second set of commands might make life hard (like scripting in the bourne shell when one is a csh user). [1] I am pessimistic since that project has not made itself very visible for feedback from the git list or submitted changes back to git. It would be great to be surprised. -- 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
