i forget, it may have been effort to tie it to Ubuntu's LaunchPad with
secure identity.

Git doesn't REQUIRE it, you can commit -a direct from working.

'Obscure' is pejorative. I will agree that 'index' is a poor word
choice in my American English.

The workflow with add/index may seem unnatural until you try it for a
while, and realize how & when the staging interaction of add, status,
diff is actually useful while setting up a batch commit.

What UI issues? You've asserted that and mentionaed a feature you'd
rather not use but didn't know you cold avoid.

(UI? what ui? we don't need no stinkin ui, Source control should
either be hooked in the IDE or in my shell command line.)

There's a 'problem' that it's different and if you don't accept it's
different you never accept how it *does* work.

If what you do is so different from what Linus and the kernel krew do,
maybe you need something else. eh.
