Hi, Kris

Don't really know ... Do you know which version of GIT is the first
who implements this feature? Would it be a problem to require an
update or the people should find their own solution?
I think that people who don't know much about GIT or are just starting
with GIT should be fine with that as they haven't done much with that
or just installed the latest version.
The only problem I can see here is that some linux-distributions
(Debian for example) tends to keep old versions in their repositories
;) Anyways ...
I think it would be max-information to link the
stackoverflow-discussion there if someone has a question to that. But
this (of course) has to be describe it in a easy understandable way :)
and I think that's the most dificult part.

Bye
Simon
