I consider it as a design bug that "add -u" is not tree-wide, but it's not easy to change the existing behavior without breaking expectations of people used to the current behavior. > Could it be it has been working from anywhere before? Can you post an example where Git 1.7.4 and a previous version behave differently? Up to now, I see difference between your expectations and what Git does, but not between new and old versions. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ -- 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
