It is only based on the amount of time passed, indeed.
I initially wanted to start a discussion on the mailing list: "is it
normal these commands are still marked as experimental?". Then I saw the
patch introducing this status, which was suggesting doing a revert in
version 2.24 or 2.25. That's why I sent this, to start the discussions
with a patch that is ready to apply. Is it not OK to do that here?
Also, when I quickly looked at the history, I didn't see any behaviour
changes since their introduction. Maybe there was a minor change with
commit 088018e34d ("restore: default to HEAD when combining --staged and
--worktree"), but it looks more like a fix than a behaviour change.
Cheers,
Matt
