But that cuts both ways.  If you change the default to full-tree,
people will forget to put "." every time when asking to limit to the
current directory.

I know. Which is why I am arguing for a configuration option.

Yeah; what is your take on tr/reset-checkout-patch topic, by the way?  I
do not particularly like a configuration that changes the behaviour of a
command in a drastic way---it will make helping others much harder, but I
guess it should be Ok?

This may sound like an OffTopic, but because we _are_ discussing
consistency, it matters.
