Chris,

I've CC'd you on some proposed changes to remove the git-subtree "should_ignore_subtree_split_commit" logic.

I have tested both of my patch series [1], [2] against every subdirectory of your aur.git repo [3]. I checked the split of every top-level directory as follows:

     for d in *
     do
       test -d "$d" || continue;
       echo >>split-results "$d  $(git subtree split -P "$d")"
     done

I compared the results to git 2.43.7 and found no changes. I would appreciate some more eyeballs and testing on this series to make sure it doesn't introduce any breakage.

Thanks,
Colin
