    It is simply not possible without screwing over every single person
    who follows my tree.

    If I go in and pull out the change, then everyone who follows my
    tree will have a corrupt tree.

    Sorry, mistakes happen, and once they are pushed out to GIT trees
    used by lots of people we have to live with it.


Send a patch to revert it and re-send a new one with right Author??
Do you think it's meaningless ;-)

Hi, Amos

Thanks for your suggestion, but I don't want to focus on it any more,
that will cause other's trouble.

So I will try to forgot it as soon as possible :)

Michael Wang
