But over the time I think we bend over a bit and sort of support these use cases. For example, aecda37 (do not overwrite files marked "assume unchanged" - 2010-05-01). The change is one-liner, so I don't mind doing it. -- Duy -- 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
