Given that some scripts depend on python2 > already, and hence we know that the user has python2, No, we don't. People do not have to use _all_ Python scripts. The discussion started about git-multimail.py, which I use on a server which doesn't have python3, while my desktop (where I use other Git commands) has Python3. It is very important that git-multimail keeps running with Python2 (ideally, it could be portable Python 2 or 3, but it's not so easy to do), but that would be strange to force even non-git-multimail-users to use Python2 for that. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ -- 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
