You'll need to adjust check_show as I did in my earlier patch.
Makes sense!
Hmph, so what is your preferred approach? You'll do your own v2.9.1
that is different from others at t0006?
I was hoping to hear from you sooner and do v2.9.2 with your t0006
workaround with lazy-prereq changes from Peff (i.e. "Makes sense!"
above), so that you do not have to do two releases in a row
(i.e. skipping v2.9.1 saying "Git for Windows skipped that one
because it was not quite right; this release fixes the issue" in
your v2.9.2 announcement).
Thanks.

I may do a Git for Windows v2.9.1 that is different from Git v2.9.1 in
t0006, yes. Git for Windows still has tons of patches on top of Git
because I seem to be unable to drain the patch queue as fast as I want, so
I do not believe it is a big deal.

I am sorry that you expected me to be more available. It is a pretty crazy
week already (and trying to get a Git for Windows v2.9.1 out of the door
after dropping everything else on Tuesday morning added quite a bit to the
load), so I am at times unable to even read the Git mailing list.
As I am more concerned with Jeff Hostetler's patch now (the "very verbose
porcelain status"; I merged the Pull Request after seeing no comments on
his mail, but then Peff provided some good feedback, so now I am not quite
certain how to go about it: revert, or wait if the 2nd iteration is
acceptable and take that), so I am not immediately releasing any version,
anyway.
Ciao,
