Subject: [RFC/PATCH 0/2] Documentation: kicking the "reset --hard" habit
Date: Fri, 29 Oct 2010 03:35:16 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101029083516.GA26290@burratino> (raw)

Hi,

Kira on IRC reminded me that our introductory documentation does
not explain how to use the new reset --keep and --merge primitives.

Sadly, at least the user manual change suggested below is probably
not suitable, since reset --keep and --merge have not been around
since git 1.5.3 days.  Ideas for working around that and other
comments would be welcome.
