I wanted to give it some name that meant "pass-through" rather than just parse, in case we add more magic attributes later. I meant "ident" to be like "mathematical identity", but in the context of a credential tool, it is probably somewhat ambiguous. :) Anyway, the fact that we can just do the parsing as part of the "fill" means we don't need it for now, so I'll leave it until somebody really cares. -Peff -- 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
