Yeah, this was my first thought on seeing Matthieu's patch. We inserted that message to tell people about the impending change, and to catch any stragglers even after the change had happened. At some point it simply becomes obsolete history. I dunno if that time is now or not. v2.3.0 (which actually flipped the switch) is only a year old, but we've been showing the message since v1.8.0, which is over 3 years old. Even Debian stable is way beyond that. :) So my inclination is to just rip out the warning entirely. -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
