I think "Avoid looking at" merely is the means to an end, and not the goal by itself. By not looking at them, you hopefully run faster. So I'd think a more useful addition under t/ would be to t/perf somewhere, not "now you can rev-list --cherry-pick even inside a corrupt repository, as long as corruption happens to be with blobs and not the containing trees". -- 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
