For people who want to anticipate the future, using anything but 'simple' is not living in the future and waiting for an additional pain coming from the differences between current and simple. If current and simple are similar enough that their differences do not matter, why wait for simple to be available everywhere and switch the default to it, instead of using current as the default in the first place? So if anything, I'd prefer the above message without "Use 'current' instead" bit. -- 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
