I have encountered one situation where it was a bit of a problem. Still far better than the other pains involved in a git like VCS. Say I code up module and then write the test suits is a seperate filed that just included. Clearly there should be a dependency but it often slips out of the mind to have an --ask-deps while recording. Usually this is easy to spot if one looks at the commit messages * foo-tests * foo Then an amend-record --ask-deps would do the trick. The problem comes when there is something of this kind * bar-tests * bar * foo-tests * foo Now if bar-tests don't commute with foo-tests there is a problem in amending the dependencies. I think this will be solved with the rebase that is being implemented but then still this is a slight pain point.
