It talks about "git-pickaxe" which later took over the "git-blame" name, which happend in acca687 (git-pickaxe: retire pickaxe, 2006-11-08). It talks about "NEEDSWORK" to hint that the implementation was incomplete, refering to the version that eventually lead to cee7f24 (git-pickaxe: blame rewritten., 2006-10-19). -- 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
