I appriciate that you clearified you oppinion. Please excuse me if it sounded as I in any way speaked for gitolite. I use gitolite as an example becuase the target application in this case is unknown to most people (think gitolite with db-backend for user permissions). It's a valid design oppinion to not mix git protocoll with anything else. But gitolite already does that. Gitolite already have user interaction mixed with git interaction. Do you say to me that gitolite is broken and should not do user interaction over git-commands? Then why does wild repos exists and why does gitolite error messages exists? We're already down that road, why not do it better? -- Med vänliga hälsningar Fredrik Gustafsson tel: 0733-608274 e-post: iv...@iveqy.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
