But how many people may be impacted this way? If it's few, probably not worth the headaches. I want to believe the number is few, but I think anybody who ssh to some machine may have the same problem because they may not control what's in that machine. I can only think of another way, ugly though: add a new command name, say "nad", that goes with new behavior, "add" remains old school. This way if I mistakenly type 'nad' on unsupported git, it refuses and I'm safe. Whether the new name is temporary (until the behavior flip in "add") or permanent is another ugly matter to think about. Or accept that evolution is painful and go with current plan, which I'm= OK too. --=20 Duy
