Well, because my response roughly translates to "Your lack of research before posting would have wasted other's time, don't do it", I _could_ have spent some time researching before posting to keep Luciano from spending his time on going back to the list archive. Setting a good example, so to speak. In that sense, perhaps you may have a point. But I do not think I (or we collectively as the project) can afford to keep doing that in the longer term. A minute lost for me is a minute lost for the project to review and integrate changes that others spent dozens of minutes, perhaps hours, to come up with. So I should not be constantly doing the archive research for other people. My response might have been mean, and I instead could have ignored it and allow the thread to waste time of others responding to it, but that would have been a worse alternative than nipping it off in the bud. I am not sure what better alternatives there were, other than having a dedicated secretary/librarian to do the archive research for the community. > http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/68786/focus=68852 Yeah, that's the one I had in mind. I like quoting the threaded interface from gmane --- it makes the context of old discussion very clear.
