I think what happened (partially) is that I never read the original, then at GitTogether somebody (Sam?) was complaining about usability issues, so I wrote the denyCurrentBranch patch. Why and how people changed their minds is a mystery to me, though. -Peff PS I seem to have an uncanny knack for writing a patch, then finding out that Dscho wrote the exact same patch months or years earlier. I think this is the third time it has happened. -- 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
