IIRC, I think I was waiting for the version with a new "Usage text" section to the documentation you alluded to in this exchange ($gmane/243924): Ilya Bobyr writes: > On 3/11/2014 12:10 PM, Junio C Hamano wrote: >> >>>> Documentation on the whole argument parsing is quite short, so,... > ... > I though that an example just to describe `argh' while useful would > look a bit disproportional, compared to the amount of text on > --parseopt. > > But now that I've added a "Usage text" section to looks quite in place. > > I just realized that the second patch I sent did not contain the > changes.

You did the right thing by sending a reminder message with a pointer to help others locate the original (like the one I am responding to), as nobody can keep up with a busy list traffic. > Same questions about this one: > > [PATCH] gitk: replace SHA1 entry field on keyboard paste > http://www.mail-archive.com/git@vger.kernel.org/msg45040.html > > I think they are more or less similar, except that the second one is > just trivial. I do not remember if I forwarded the patch to the area maintainer Paul Mackerras , but if I didn't please do so yourself. The changes to gitk and git-gui come to me via their own project repositories.
