Subject: git-rerere: Usage question
Date: Fri, 23 May 2008 16:27:54 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4836D46A.7070807@dirk.my1.cc> (raw)

I recently read the docs for 'git-rerere'. Seems a cool feature.
But I'm not quite sure whether I understood it right. I think
I understood what it does but I didn't understand when to call
it.

Is it true that it's not neccessary to issue that command manually
when I configured "rerere.enabled true"? The docs say that I *can*
call it but it also says that git-merge and git-rebase call it
automatically whenever needed.

Thus it seems to be one of the plumbing tools to me, which
I only call in case of emergency. Am I right?
