I think I was worried about something like this: 1) ssh -Y other_machine 2) git help -w, it opens my browser 3) open many other tabs in the browser 4) exit other_machine, oops my browser with all my tabs is gone or 1) open my favorite browser and many tabs in it 2) ssh -Y other_machine 3) git help -w, cool it opens a tab in my already opened browser in 1) 4) exit other_machine, oops my browser with all my tabs is gone I thought it would perhaps help, and it was better to be on the safe side. But I just tested a little and it seems it doesn't change anything. Also there are some browser that are very verbose on the SDTOUT or STDERR (especially konqueror) and I thought the nohup would also help move the output out of the command line while not discarding it in case it's needed. But I agree that it's not very often usefull and anyway there are better ways to deal with it. So no problem to do away with the "nohup".
