Could you write up a set of testcases that show the bug? See the "t" directory in the git sources -- you don't need to learn much about git internals, they are just shell scripts (mostly, I think there's some perl there too). That could lead to a good contribution to the project. ... and keep you from telling everyone else that you know better how to hack a project that you know nothing about ;-) (...) > So, what, you're saying git shouldn't do any work at all to try and > behave nicer on OS X? Kevin - for your edification, that question is usually referred to as "trolling" in this place we call the internet. Linus outlined what his technical plan is, so git will probably do something designed by someone who knows a thing or two about git's internals. So when you pretend that he is saying the opposite of what he is saying... well, people do get upset. cheers, m - 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
