"Do you want to fetch the view that the upstream offers as an option, and if you want, which ones (meaning: there could be more than one replacement grafts to give different views)?" And as an optional view, I would say it is perfectly Ok to fetch whichever view you want as a separate step after the initial clone. -- 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
