There isn't a point to it. It's historical cruft that has been left in to avoid breaking older scripts. The same thing is generally better accomplished by using git-config's "--file" parameter. We should probably do a better job of making that clear in the documentation. Or possibly deprecate it and eventually remove it entirely, as discussed in: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.bugs.general/1195694/focus=257770 -Peff -- 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
