"git blame -L475,6 builtin/replace.c" points at b892bb45 (replace: add --edit option, 2014-04-26) and the commit log message names two people who can review this change, so that is what I am doing here.

I can understand "we only know edit mode needs config, and we know it will never affect other modes to have the new call here", and it would be good for an emergency patch for ancient maintenance track that will not get any other changes or enhancements. I do not think it is a sound reasoning to maintain the codefor the longer term, though. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
