We already make noises when the option is used. Probably need to make some noises in release notes though. > Are there other ancient features we have been passively advertising as > deprecated that we should now start the removal process? grepping for deprecated shows mostly deprecated commands: git lost-found git tar-tree git peek-remote (synonym to git ls-remote) git init-db (synonym to git init) git repo-config (synonym to git config) I'm pretty sure we don't want to remove them anytime soon though, right? The only option of interest is 'git reset --mixed' with paths. I don't really know the backstory on that but it looks like it was deprecated when the command was made into a builtin 0e5a7fa (Make "git reset" a builtin., 2007-09-11). Maybe it can become a die now? Oh and git notes has a deprecation warning but I think we'll probably have to revisit that one in a few years.
