I sometimes pronounce "foreach" when I see "ef oh ar" in Perl programs, but I do not do that aloud around other people. My point was that things like this: >> print H "$_\0" for @deletedfiles; is perfectly fine among Perl people (and I would probably even encourage rewriting git-*.perl scripts in more Perlish style if the project were about an SCM primarily targetted for Perl people --- it is not), but look obfuscated without merit to people who do not talk Perl.
