Dear diary, on Thu, Jan 12, 2006 at 01:04:41AM CET, I got a letter where Junio C Hamano [off-list ref] said that...
- Disable USE_SYMLINK_HEAD by default (Pavel Roskin). This has been on hold for almost two months -- forever in git timescale. One offender that could have been broken by this change was fixed recently (gitweb), so this can go in anytime now. Do people still care about it? The argument for the change when it was proposed was "then we only have to worry about one format of .git/HEAD, not two", and it still is a valid argument from Porcelain writers' point of view. To be honest, since I do not do Porcelain, I am neutral about it.
Yes, I'd still be pleased to see this. Cogito should be ready for this for long enough, as far as I'm concerned. -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ Of the 3 great composers Mozart tells us what it's like to be human, Beethoven tells us what it's like to be Beethoven and Bach tells us what it's like to be the universe. -- Douglas Adams
