The reason I deliberately chose to use capital letter in "add -A" even when we do not have "add -a" was exactly so that interested parties can do "commit -A" to match it (and "commit -a" is doing the _right_ thing out of the box, and its behaviour will not change). Hopefully you can take it as a strong hint that I personally do not think "commit -A" is without merit. So far, nobody stepped up to do it, though. I have been taking it as a sign that "commit -A" is not one of the commonly desired features but is probably closer to your "odd/unusual". It's up to the user/developer community to change that ;-) -- 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
