People should use just plain git." I strongly disagree. Git, like perl, is a Swiss Army chainsaw. (There's an interactive webpage that's there only to guide git users toward fixing mistakes they make using it.) A chainsaw with attached scalpels is the right tool if you need to amputate the hindleg of a live, kicking elephant near the hip and to do that fast. To butter my toast? Let me have a dull butter knife instead, please. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
