The difference being, of course, that we do not ship default aliases (and neither do we plan to...). So saying "this is what aliases are for" you ask for _newbies_ to add it for themselves. We are talking the same newbies who should be helped by that command, and typically do not know that there are Git aliases yet. Even worse, just sum the times it takes everybody to make that alias, and then compare with the time it would take to include something like David posted in git.git. It should be obvious that the time balance is absolutely horrible. Ciao, Dscho
