Subject: Remote subtree split --annotate
Date: Sat,  2 Jan 2016 14:36:23 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1451766984-4648-1-git-send-email-greened@obbligato.org> (raw)

This is a fairly simple patch to remove subtree's split --annotate
option.  The intent of the option is to mark commits split from
a subdirectory but git has other tools more suitable for editing
commit messages.  Given --annotate an --unannotate feature seems
obvious and in fact was requested at one point.  Discussion ensued
and it became clear that the definition of --unannotate is not
obvious given the multitude of ways one might want to rewrite a
commit message.

Since it is simple to run other git commit message rewriting tools
on commits split from a subdirectory, it seems best to just
get git-subtree out of the commit rewriting business altogether.
