I must say, I can't say I disagree with you. In fact, it is the reason I no longer ask for the continuance of `commit -r', though I believe people can still have valid uses for it. However, if I understand it correctly in the case of `--lf', Tony did not remove it because it was a maintenace burden, but because he thought people could do evil with this option, while it was still useful to some users. This is what pains me. IMHO, it is simpler to leave the option as it was and not to touch it at all, for the benefit of the developer as well as the user. Please correct me if I did not understand correctly. Best regards, Yongwei -- Wu Yongwei URL: http://wyw.dcweb.cn/
