I think it's a valid, possibly vital,\npart of the suggested workflow for maintainers of projects.

I agree that the RPM dependency problem is a good reason to\nnot install it by default. What I will do is make this the beginning\nof my directory structure reorganization.

This will hopefully be the one that\nbecomes the official 0.99.4.\n\n$ rpm -qp ~/rpms/RPMS/i386/git-core-0.99.4-1.i386.rpm --requires\n/bin/sh\n/usr/bin/env\n/usr/bin/perl\ndiffutils\nlibc.so.6\nlibc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0)\nlibc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1)\nlibc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1.3)\nlibc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.3)\nlibc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)\nlibcrypto.so.4\nlibcurl.so.3\nlibssl.so.4\nlibz.so.1\nmktemp >= 1.5\nperl(File::Basename)\nperl(File::Path)\nperl(File::Spec)\nperl(File::Temp)\nperl(Getopt::Std)\nperl(IO::Pipe)\nperl(IO::Socket)\nperl(POSIX)\nperl(Time::Local)\nperl(strict)\nperl(warnings)\nrcs\nrpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1\nrpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1\nrsync\nsh-utils\n"}]}
