I was not talking about fixing it up in your repository.  If you really 
think that git should help you, you gotta teach it to.  Because people who 
do not experience the same as you will be less likely to feel the urge to 
teach git to help in that situation (because they did not experience that 
situation yet).  For example, I am one of these people.  And I guess a lot 
of these people hang out on this list.

Ciao,
