Well... ;-) in any case, I suspect some of the semantics cogito uses are

So I think we need these niceties in core git for large projects. Right
now we have an explosion of ways of doing things, and many of them
error-prone. The basic idioms should be simple and fool-proof.

Can we not have something like this merged into the shell version? When
