This [changing git status to use the pager automatically] was quite a

Well, I think that a command producing pages and pages of output without stopping is useless. Therefore, _I_ maintain that it makes tons of sense.

Ditto. For me, the change was very welcome. Sure, usually the status output is short, but on those occasions where it isn't (big file reorganizations etc) I was quite sick of doing the "git status, oops that output was too long let's try again, git -p status" dance. It was also incongruous with my very first experiences with Git, where I had been pleasantly surprised that "git log" automatically invoked the pager whereas "svn log" just spewed output into my console until ^C.

Cheers,
Wincent
