Personally, I think they should all go under .git with very descriptive, public names (the name ".dotest" is not really hidden from the user, and I have never really been able to make sense of it. Surely there is some more useful name?). But I think there is the real possibility of damaging user scripts which make assumptions based on the presence of .dotest (to see if we're in a git-am or rebase session, etc). I have no idea how common such scripts are. -Peff - 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
