Yes, this was my exact thought when reading what Linus wrote. ORIG_HEAD might be fine and all, but it pales in functionality compared to what reflog provides. I would very much like to see reflog getting first-class citizen support in git: 1. Be on by default 2. Get documented in all the right places, (much better than adding documentation for ORIG_HEAD in my opinion) 3. Tighter integration with branch manipulations. Do we already delete reflog when deleting a branch? We don't have a branch rename operation, but if we get one, renaming the reflog should go hand-in-hand, etc. -Carl - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
