Subject: git whatchanged -- yes, I still use this
Message-ID: <CA+Hr9go-jyDeau8HVi+fUuiTTgAS_SNgyGL9x660+GzGJZJBEQ@mail.gmail.com>

If you are going to remove it, "alias" it to something.

alternatively, I guess I'll make "git-whatchanged" binary to do it.

Can I ask what the problem is with it? The code is a mess I'm guessing.

I'd also suggest, instead of the message:

'git whatchanged' is nominated for removal.
If you still use this command, please add an extra
option, '--i-still-use-this', on the command line
and let us know you still use it by sending an e-mail
to <git@vger.kernel.org>.  Thanks.
fatal: refusing to run without --i-still-use-this


add to the message:

<run this instead>

love & respect,
