Like I said, I think this change affects too many existing users in a very 
negative way.

But then, I respect Junio's very careful way of dealing with such issues, 
and am not really doubting that it will take a long, long time to change 
the default behaviour of Git, if at all.  Which is a good thing.

And I am certain that Paolo does not believe his release notes argument 
either.  Not seriously, anyway.

Ciao,
Dscho
