[RFC/PATCHv3 2/3] git-svn: Warn about changing default for --prefix in Git v2.0

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In Git v2.0, we will change the default --prefix for init/clone from
none/empty to "origin/" (which causes SVN-tracking branches to be
placed at refs/remotes/origin/* instead of refs/remotes/*).

This patch warns users about the upcoming change, both in the git-svn
manual page, and on stderr when running init/clone in the "multi-mode"
without providing a --prefix.
