After all, the whole idea of the change being safe is that it shouldn't make a difference the way people usually use git, no? In other words, how about the following patches? With them applied, hopefully no one would mind even if the warning becomes a fatal error. Looking forward to your thoughts, Jonathan Nieder (4): add: make pathless 'add [-u|-A]' warning a file-global function add: make warn_pathless_add() a no-op after first call add -u: only show pathless 'add -u' warning when changes exist outside cwd add -A: only show pathless 'add -A' warning when changes exist outside cwd builtin/add.c | 142 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------ 1 file changed, 99 insertions(+), 43 deletions(-) -- 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
