Ah, actually I tried
git checkout origin/aufs3.10
which returned just error
error: pathspec 'origin/aufs3.10' did not match any files
So I thought I have to checkout 3.0.
If you modify the error messages as you suggested, it won't help me.
For example if I get error message that aufs util is for aufs 3.0 but
my aufs is 3.10, I still do not know what to checkout, which version
of aufs utils is available for me.
I would suggest to modify the error message in ver.c to show the user
a command which he can use to list all available checkpoints. I do not
use git much so I do not know what is that command. Something like:
git "show me all checkpoints which I can checkout to"
- that will make it easy for the user to see which nearest version of
aufs tools is available for his aufs version.
Thank you for consideration
