Hi,
in a interesting discussion in G+ Dscho raised a few issues in the GIT UI.
I think there is value in summarizing the thread and opening a new
discussion here:
- short names for uncommon operation, long names for common ones (e.g.
cherry vs cherry-pick)
- lack of undo
- the usual discussion about the terms index, staging area and the
"add" command. They all look not consistent.
- 'git remote' has sub commands 'rename' (but not 'mv') and 'rm' (but
not 'remove')
- git remote add -f blub WRONG_URL fails but you still have to remove
the remote before you can try again to add something.
So they are not lost:
