I'd say: both. git status could have been spelled "git commit --dry-run", they're actually the same command, but "git status" stops before launching the editor and doing the actual commit. So, they take the exact same set of options. That said, in an ideal world, "git status -h" would mention that the commit message options are ignored with "git status". -- Matthieu -- 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
