Inconsistency can be a bitch at times.
Consistency is really the issue at hand -- not only is there consistency between add and drop to think about, but also consistency between them and other restriction commands. I doubt anyone wants "commit ." or "diff ." to be interpreted non-recursively (at least without some sort of --non-recursive flag). Is this a compelling argument for add/drop to behave the same way? -- Nathaniel -- In mathematics, it's not enough to read the words you have to hear the music _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
