I generally try to work on one thing at a time and keep the status =20 output short -- and I imagine that that's the way most people work -- =20 but there are certain things where long output is going to be =20 unavoidable, like renaming a directory with lots of files in it. And =20 when that happens, seeing only the bottom of the "git status" output =20 and not the top is not what I want 100% of the time. Cheers, Wincent
