Subject: Re: [PATCH] TIG: Implement mkstemps() work-around for platforms lacking it
Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2013 00:45:23 -0400	[thread overview]

Giving this one last kick to make absolutely sure that nobody disagrees
with allowing this code to be included into tig, which does not limit
to a specific version of the GPL (version 2 in the case of git, any
version equal to or newer than 2 in the case of tig), pursuant to
paragraph 9 of said license.
