And the key article in that discussion by Peff points to http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/102039 with "I had some complaints at the time, but re-reading it I don't see anything that would prevent us from revisiting the topic now." Reading the patch series from 2008 again, I do agree with J6t's comment that it should be just a regular capability, i.e. like what Peff suggests in his comment on [PATCH 5/6 (v2)], but other than that, I do not see anything that would prevent us from revisiting the topic now, either. -- 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
