Ahh, so what you're referring to here is stabilization of multiple unrelated packages in a single commit.. ok.. i'm not so comfortable with that idea.. BUT, nothing stopped us from doing this with CVS (although the mapping of commit between CVS and GIT aren't exactly 1:1), so i guess it's fine..? What about simply keeping things as they are but not strictly enforcing them when they are used in a manner like this for special cases, such as ago's stabilizations or other security@ or arch team keyword-related commits? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iF4EAREIAAYFAlYlC/wACgkQAJxUfCtlWe1XSgD/fa4M2E7k4asOeUGgLEt2um6m 9NovN22eVUeLbSvtnLoBALT4+vhXqYhi3K3ytFv6dcfcKFpiYMbuWuMNu2YrVRj9 =Ef9v -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
