Though I think git-gui is more of a porcelain than the others, as it tries to rely *less* on the core porcelain and just on the plumbing. I don't always succeed, but I'm heading in that direction. To me a porcelain is any tool that layers over the plumbing and makes it easier for the end-user to operate it. Early git only had things like read-tree/write-tree/commit-tree. Tying that all up into a neat "Commit" command for the end-user is the job of porcelain. Anyway. Just so long as git-gui is included in the survey. I'm interested in seeing how many people use it, because I know it has a pretty decently sized userbase. Which is probably going to grow in the future with the i18n work going on. Do we have any questions in the survey about the user's native language? About their desire to have git translated into their native language? Folks are now working on translating git-gui, and that work will be in git-gui 0.9.x, if not 0.8.1/2. So it may be nice to know what languages our users are interested in. -- Shawn. - 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
