c8af1de9cfa0a5678ae766777e0f905e60b69fda makes git status use a pager. I think this is a horrible choice. Now when I type `git status` I have to type "q" to get back to my shell, and I've lost the output of the pager. It makes sense for commands with long output like `git log`, but `git status` rarely has output longer than my terminal's height, and so making it use the pager simply detracts from its functionality.
Does anybody have any comments or opinions about this either way? -Kevin Ballard -- Kevin Ballard http://kevin.sb.org kevin@xxxxxx http://www.tildesoft.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
