I may have been unclear in the earlier message, but this is one of the reasons why I think "fetch --depth" is misadvertised (it says "deepen the history", when the real thing it does is to truncate to the new depth counting from the updated tip), and misdesigned (it forces the user to guess what the new depth should be). It should be advertised correctly, as a way to reset its depth starting from the current history (and of course --depth=1 is truncates). We should introduce a separate "fetch --deepen" that does what normal people would want (see my earlier message with ASCII art). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
