I actually did run `make test` before sending the patch, but when so many seemingly unrelated tests failed, I foolishly assumed that they were pre-existing failures. I should have run the tests on master for comparison, sorry. Or at least put "RFC" in the subject instead of "PATCH" as you suggest. I sincerely apologize for my lack of due diligence and I know that I need to do better at self-reviewing patches before sending them. > Alex Henrie wrote: > > > + "You can replace \"git config\" with \"git config --global\" to set a default\n" > > + "preference for all repositories.

Ahh, so /that's/ what you meant by "3. Fix all the wrong behavior with --ff, --no-ff, and -ff-only". That does seem like something worth trying to fix before making the switch.

Weird. I'm trying to make things better, as I'm sure you are as well, and I know that I make a lot of mistakes and need the help of more experienced contributors like you. So please be nice, even if others are mean to you, because regardless of whether these comments were directed at me, this kind of comment just makes me feel like giving up.

That's your department. "That's your department" is a personal attack. How about we all go spend some time enjoying the weather, and then get back to working on Git problems later this week. -Alex
