So I will say it out directly: I think no >patch is needed. I think some users will expect to get a clean checkout when simply=20 doing "git checkout ". It would be nice for the documentation=20 mention that is not the case, and reference the tool that helps get the=20 tree into that state. Just my opinion, though. It seems natural to me for this to be mentioned in the 'git checkout'=20 documentation. Perhaps there's a better place? =2D-=20 Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,=3D ,-_-. =3D.=20 bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-'=20 http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/ =20 --nextPart6525536.z8dRlSbM6x Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAkl1IN0ACgkQ55pqL7G1QFnbwwCfah2C7zFJM12xeiNMhuwNETXd DjAAniAZmY+vlYBW7ek9mku9YuKxGXpH =BECT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart6525536.z8dRlSbM6x--
