Learning mq's only took about 20 minutes. Fortunately, git is based on extremely simple principles. Unfortunately, git grew out of really bright people hacking stuff together in order to get sh!t dun; the result is not approachably or even well documented, the UI is sometimes a bit of a kludge, the API is probably nonexistent, and the terminology is so loosely thrown about that it's easy to forget which way is up in discussions. (Note, though, that Junio has done a laudable job of keeping the whole experiment going strong). Having recognized these deficiencies, I suggest that you provide at least one tiny little use case that doesn't work as you'd like; it should be in the form of a command line example that we can all reproduce and discuss precisely. -- 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
