Theodore Tso was helpful to point out to me in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/88698/focus=88844 when I said the same thing: > The top-level man page has a listing of what is porcelain and what is > plumbing --- although there is some disagreement. Take a look at "git help git" it has a _different_ (and longer) list of what is porcelain. But that there isn't an exact concensus on the matter. Peter -- Peter Valdemar Mørch http://www.morch.com
