Subject: [PATCH 2/8] builtin/reflog: improve grouping of subcommands
Date: Tue, 22 Jul 2025 13:20:51 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250722-pks-reflog-append-v1-2-183e5949de16@pks.im> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250722-pks-reflog-append-v1-0-183e5949de16@pks.im>
The way subcommands of git-reflog(1) are layed out does not make any
immediate sense. Reorder them such that read-only subcommands precede
writing commands for a bit more structure.
Furthermore, move the "expire" subcommand last. This prepares for a
subsequent change where we are about to introduce a new "write" command
to append reflog entries. Like this, the writing subcommands are ordered
such that those affecting a single reflog come before those spanning
across all reflogs.
