Remember: "just add an alias!" is an acceptable answer only if the desired feature is odd/unusual. For desired features that are likely to be generally useful, git should do the right thing, out of the box, for everybody. Which case this particular request falls into, is a matter of judgement, but such a feature looks "generally useful" to me. The annoying thing, of course, is that commit and add already have inconsistent long options for this type of functionality (commit --all vs add --all). [I'd consider that a bug, regardless of whether commit gets -A type functionality, but I suppose it's too late to fix...] -Miles -- Absurdity, n.
