I think the new name is likely to confuse normal users - when talking about a branch, you can talk about where it forked from and in that case it normally means the merge-base of that branch and master. The --reflog name has the advantage that it makes clear that this is looking at something more than the commit graph and I don't think --fork-point does imply that. -- 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
