I'm "sure" the silent majority don't care at all. Git is a program mostly for a specialized group of people who are perfectly capable of using either model or customizing the installation at will. It may be a correctness issue with pro and cons for each model (something along the lines of "how many devils..."), but it doesn't matter for the (I'm sure) "silent majority" in practice at all. Writing this email (let alone reading them all) takes more time than customizing git config. --=20 Krzysztof Halasa
