2013-06-17 Thread Matthew Johnson
It isn't true. The claim that Git reduces to branches being endofunctors on submanifolds of Hilbert spaces is humorous. After all, one thing I see was overlooked in the attempt to actually make sense out of it, looking at definitions, was that there is no notion of continuity in Git; but contin

Re: [git-users] untracked files not shown when using 'git status'

2015-11-29 Thread Matthew Johnson
I would say that is not as documented. Why? Because "Shows untracked files and directories" does not give any conditioning limiting which untracked files it will show: one would then think it means to show all untracked files, including those in untracked directories. On Friday, November 27, 20
