We can now group our modules by hierachy and designate modules we are interested by logical names such as crawler or search as my proposal has mentioned. And if there are not a logical module name satisfying our requirement, we can define one by ourself in .git/config (if it's a special or temporary requirement) or in .gitmodules (if it's a common requirement). Now .git/config and .gitmodules will play the same as .git/info/exclude and .gitignore. > -- > larsh > -- Ping Yin -- 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
