The biggest drawback of this "porcelain": > using it, you do not understand the Git's index philosophy. git-gui is a good tool here (so good, in fact, that this is the second time today I spam the list about it). It shows very pedagogically the diff between HEAD and index, and the diff between index and working dir, and allows you to point and click your way to committing precisely the subset of changes you intended to commit. As an added bonus, it's perfectly usable even if you don't know anything about emacs. -- Karl Hasselström, kha@xxxxxxxxxxx www.treskal.com/kalle - 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
