Personally I don't care too much. I'm used to the shallow threading, so I'm fine with that. Now on the other hand, looking at a few examples I see GitGitGadget does deep nesting. Wouldn't it make sense to be consistent? Anyhow, I don't think it's worth it to keep bike shedding about this. In all methods we recommend to Cc people, I think that's more important then caring about how messages are threaded (for example, I've noticed LKML doesn't thread at all, i.e. `b4.send-same-thread=no` which is the default). Bottom line, for me this series is good to go in. -- Cheers, Toon
