While I agree that diffs in commit e-mails are preferable to not having them, the "lost commits" issue between backup and crash is less of an issue with git as long as many people are pulling from the official repository. This is because with git the clones have the full history unlike CVS checkouts. So to get the official repository back up, Daniel would just have to push from his local development machine or from the repository at haxx.se again, or if those are broken or out of date too, then you or Gunter or someone else would likely have the whole thing or most of it. Or if not you then some of the autobuilders. -- Michael Wood <[email protected]> ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
