Does anybody have any comments or opinions about this either way?

I agree with you; I don't like it at all.

I do not care either way. As I do not have LESS defined in my environment
(which makes git use its built-in that contains FX), I actually never
noticed the difference before or after that patch.

Even if I put FX into LESS (I have it set normally so it contains R), it still doesn't behave correctly. I compulsively clear my terminal screen whenever I don't need the current contents, but with FX in LESS, `git status` throws the output at the bottom of my terminal, leaving a lot of blank space at the top. This is extremely irritating to me.

hmms... I remember you being a Mac user. I'm on 10.4.11 and with

LESS=iFMRSXW
LESSCHARSET=utf-8

it works as if no pager has been set.

Personally, I like the pager because the best part of git-status is at the top, so if I hit git-status thats the one I want to see.

Best regards,
