Isn't this a known issue that can be found out easily from the archive? http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/27259 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/101956/focus=101958 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/102039 If I remember correctly, the two patch series from Junio wasn't accepted warmly and they were dropped. -- Nanako Shiraishi http://ivory.ap.teacup.com/nanako3/
