About that I wrote in initial email above: "The last patch 94/94 adds a --silent command line option to git apply. This is not necessary, but some scripts could perhaps use it, and it could make it easier to test the new silent feature." I expose the feature in the last patch exactly because, if we don't want to expose the feature, is is easy to do by just dropping the last patch. And I explain the reasons why it might be a good idea to expose the feature, but I am also ok with just dropping the patch. -- 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
