If we later see that we really want to have it we can always introduce it later. I don't think we should do it now if we don't see clear benefits _now_. So I was not against the link object itself (initially I wanted to do it this way, too), only agains the information which was proposed to be stored there. Up to now I haven't found anything which makes sense to store next to the submodule commit to define the identity of the submodule. --=20 Martin Waitz --w7rOJgaucv5jay56 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFcekNj/Eaxd/oD7IRAm6GAJ9fSDOCaqo6Vzfy0hfno+8gnKwjkwCeLowl jIlA052DVIa2TTBhAsI/sKk= =aPhR -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
