> Thanks for your reply.  I can wait for 1.5.2.

Actually, you (and everyone who likes your patch and the proposed
semantics) can wait indefinitely. Just keep the patch in a side branch
and rebase it or merge with Junio's master occasionally.
I believe many of us have some features they keep in their repos which
they never send upstream (for their own reasons. I customized some
warnings and added printing of ip addresses to git-fetch. Not
interesting for everyone, but is useful next time kernel.org has DNS
problems). Just become the maintainer of the feature.
