True as far as it goes, and for appropriate values of "what I have". Neither do I _have_ to subscribe to the mailing list, or, for that matter, to read the release notes of a new version I install. But git is not particularly easy to learn on my own, so I end up asking for help. (Arguably this qualifies as "not comfortable with what I have.") And then "ancient version" translates all too easily into "you should upgrade to a newer one". --=20 Tilman Schmidt E-Mail: tilman@imap.cc Bonn, Germany Diese Nachricht besteht zu 100% aus wiederverwerteten Bits.
