Btw, I do realize that I'm a total wiener, and that my inability to use "getopt_long()" is shameful and stupid. What can I say? I'm easily confused, and besides, I really seldom program in user mode. So if somebody were to getopt'ify git, _without_ adding crapola like autoconf (which probably implies that git would just require GNU getopt), and others agree that it's ok to just say that we expect getopt_long() to exist, then I'd not have any objections to making the above just be git-read-tree -m HEAD | git-checkout-cache -fqua (to which the beavis-and-butthead in me says "hehhehhehh.. He said fqua. Hehhehh. fire fire fire.") Linus
