Re: [PATCH] git-commit: revamp the git-commit semantics.

As someone refreshed my memory in private, there is no "unstable" branch

i.e. in the main branch after the stable 1.2.0 branch is forked.

Yes I understood what you meant.  Eventually we ship with --only
as the default and the best timing is between 1.2.0 and 1.3.0.

I am just worried if it might turn out to be like shipping a
bicycle with training wheels welded onto it (so it cannot be
easily removed).  That is where my reluctance comes from.

But I do not have to be convinced 100% myself in order to set it
to the default, as long as the more important users are happy.
