- Sverre Rabbelier suggests renaming 'git notes merge --reset' to 'git notes merge --abort'. I sort of agree, but would want some consistency with 'git merge', e.g. by providing 'git merge --abort' as an alias to 'git reset --merge'.
Can someone comment on whether "git reset --merge" is a good implementation of "git merge --abort"? If we can get an Ack from someone I'd love to see this implemented.
- When resolving notes merge conflicts, you can add/remove files/notes in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE; 'git notes merge --commit' does not check that the notes have any relationship to the notes originally put there by 'git notes merge'. Should we warn about removed and added notes in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE? Currently we don't, and I'm not sure it's worth it. Users can always review the merge commit afterwards.
If it's easy to do, it would be useful.
- Fetching and pushing note refs: - Add refs/notes/* to default fetch refspec? - A way to specify (at clone time) which refspec(s) to set up? - A way for the remote repo to hint at which refspecs you might want to set up (by default?)
Didn't we already discuss this earlier? Can you summarize (or at least link to) that discussion? -- Cheers, Sverre Rabbelier
