Not all the changes listed on the page may necessarily be good as-is (e.g. some may help only a subset of users while hurting others, like the "recursively check-out everything unconditionally" that trigerred this thread), but the page has a good collection to remind anybody, who designs a coherent whole, of issues that need to be taken into account. Thanks for a pointer to an excellent starting page. -- 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
