Subject: do people use the 'git' command?
Date: Fri, 10 Jun 2005 12:53:32 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1DgodI-0003ov-Fl@highlab.com> (raw)

What good is the 'git' command?  It's a shortcut to run the
"git-$FUNCTION-script" programs, but it doesnt do the "git-$FUNCTION"
programs.  It just doesnt seem worth its inode, to me.  And it doesnt seem
worth the pain to distribution maintainers (like me) to avoid the naming
conflict with GNU Interactive Tools' /usr/bin/git.


Can we drop the "git" program?
