The .git directory doesn't hurt anything that gentoo would do, we\nwould just update the ebuild for the major releases.\n\nthanks,\n\ngreg k-h\n"},{"id":"1308","messageId":"1114195913.29271.48.camel@nosferatu.lan","threadId":"244","inReplyTo":"20050422182353.GA599@kroah.com","subject":"Re: [git pasky] tarball question","fromName":"Martin Schlemmer","fromEmail":"azarah@nosferatu.za.org","sentAt":"2005-04-22T18:51:53Z","receivedAt":"2005-04-22T18:51:53Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"azarah@nosferatu.za.org","avatar":null},"body":"On Fri, 2005-04-22 at 11:23 -0700, Greg KH wrote:\n> On Fri, Apr 22, 2005 at 04:31:43PM +0200, Martin Schlemmer wrote:\n\nHi,\n\n> > How about ripping the .git directory from the next release, and just\n> > have a un-numbered tarball (like you used to) that have the latest\n> > snapshot of the .git directory for those that want to do git-pasky\n> > development?
