Subject: [PATCH v7 0/2] builtin/config.c: support `--type=<type>` as preferred alias for `--type`
Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2018 15:46:50 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180409224650.GA34547@syl.local> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180328234719.595-1-me@ttaylorr.com>
Hi,
Attached is the seventh re-roll of my series to support '--type=<type>'
instead of '--<type>' in 'git-config(1)'.
Since v6, I have changed only the wording in
Documentation/git-config.txt, which Eric and I reached consensus upon in
a sub-thread [1]. Per Eric's suggestion, I have also included an
inter-diff between this re-roll and the one previous for easier
consumption.
I anticipate that since relatively little has changed since the last
re-roll, that this will be the final re-roll of this series. I apologize
that the re-roll count has gotten so high, though I am glad that we
hashed out the important details. I have a better idea of how to discuss
on this list without increasing the re-roll count so much.
Thanks in advance for your review :-).
Thanks,
Taylor
