http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/259853
but then after much discussion, we dropped all of the lead-in patches, and I sent Ronnie's unedited:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/259911
All that looking and I didn't notice the release/reset difference between our two versions. Sheesh.
Which is all a roundabout way of saying "yes, René's patch is obviously correct". :)
