Subject: [PATCH 2/2] git-quiltimport: flip the default not to allow fuzz
Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2014 14:38:00 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <xmqq38ahje87.fsf_-_@gitster.dls.corp.google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <xmqq7g0r9v04.fsf@gitster.dls.corp.google.com> (Junio C. Hamano's message of "Thu, 25 Sep 2014 15:48:43 -0700")

Trying to be as strict as possible when applying the patch may be a
good discipline, so let's flip the default but we can be helpful to
those who do rely on the original behaviour thanks to the previous
change to add -C$n option.

Suggest using -C1 when (and only when):

 - "git apply" without fuzz fails to apply; and
 - the user did not specify a -C$n or --exact option; and
 - "git apply -C1" (old behaviour) would have succeeded.

 * And this is the "flipping of the default"
