I kind of agree that the existing system of respecting the executable bit is nice, though: it does what you told it to do, and a misconfiguration is your problem, not the system's. It's perhaps worth changing if people frequently get the executable-bit thing wrong, but I don't know whether they do or not. I kind of feel like we had a similar discussion around items in PATH, but I don't remember how it resolved. -Peff -- 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
