I do not see much niceness value to such an option, though. I think such a switch is going the opposite way from improving usability. You cannot bisect the history with such a draconian switch when you learn from somebody that 'maint' is Ok but 'master' is broken, and you already know it is a regression somewhere introduced in 'master', because you know you did _not_ fix it (or at least you do not remember fixing it) only for 'maint'. -- 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
