Subject: RE: [PATCH v2 0/8] Handle pull option precedence
Date: Wed, 21 Jul 2021 07:15:42 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <60f80feeb4461_1305dc208b8@natae.notmuch> (raw)

It's a bit tedious to keep repeating all the ways this approach is
flawed, but here we go again.

It might have been a surprise for you, but Son Luong Ngoc's usage of the
options is correct.

These test cases check for backwards incompatible changes, not what the
code is doing (and is supposed to be doing) right now.
> * Patch 3: Alex's recent patch (abort if --ff-only but can't do so)
This breaks backwards compatibility.
Users will complain.
> * Patches 4-6: fix the precedence parts Alex didn't cover
Yet another backwards incompatible change.
> * Patch 7: Alex's other patch, abort if rebase vs. merge not specified
More brekage without a single day of deprecation warning.

This doesn't update anything in Documentation/config, which is now
clearly broken.
