And - it means git aliases have the same form as builtins - it means git on Windows has the same interface (Arguably the latter point ought to be "forces Unix users to use the same interface as on Windows", but the git-foo forms have been deprecated on all platforms for a while. Making Unix and Windows the same seems a worthwhile goal, though presumably it's irrelevant for linux kernel people.) -- 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
