Re: [kernel.org users] [RFD] On deprecating "git-foo" for builtins

The problem is not caused by the number of commands, but by their

"git am" is fine with me, but "git format-patch" is quite boring to
type. It's also interesting to note that short names are currently
in place for less commonly used commands : git-rm, git-mv, git-gc.

Indeed.

Also, I type "git-diff-tree" quite a lot.

My fingers find that

	git SPACE diff DASH tree

is slower and less consistent than

	git DASH diff DASH tree

The same with git-format-patch...  We are going from "all dashes" to "a 
mix of space and dashes" which is increasing inconsistency.
