Quoting "Stephen Cuppett" <cuppett@xxxxxxxxx>: > I propose we eliminate this symlink. Maybe it is just me, but you do not sound like you are proposing to do anything yourself. You are simply demanding Junio to change the way he works. Instead of being able to edit RelNotes at the toplevel, relying on the symbolic link to let him edit the right file, you are forcing him to edit the appropriate file in Documentation/ directory. Shouldn't you have at least said "I request" instead? I sometimes have a checkout on a filesystem that does not support symbolic links, but I set core.symlink configuration variable to false in such a case. Would it make sense to update "git init" to autodetect lack of symbolic link support in the filesystem? -- Nanako Shiraishi http://ivory.ap.teacup.com/nanako3/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Free pop3 email with a spam filter. http://www.bluebottle.com/tag/5 - 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
