While I share your concern, this is something that will completely freeze development of the git tui which I cannot imagine is wanted. If this where my tool, I would much rather advertise an output format specifically for scripting. An interim solution could be something like an `—ignore-configuration` option that allows script writers to get predictable output. This however still freezes the default output of git forever. So you will need something like —output-for=scripting|json|xml|whatever sooner or later. Mixing up the TUI for humans and for scripts is not going to be fun to evolve. Best Regards, Martin Häcker
