Sounds sane. Especially if we couple it with a hint for the user to use "commit -a" when he/she wants to do blanket commits. So in essence that would mean: If no pathspecs are given and index matches current HEAD, print out "Nothing to commit but changes in working tree. Assuming 'git commit -a' and then act accordingly. Carl, do you think that would satisfy the desires of your RedHat peers? Always doing '-a' by default is terribly wrong for those of us who actually use partial commits a lot, and it would also rob git of a lot of its power. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson@op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 - 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.htmlReceived on Thu Nov 30 23:50:52 2006
