Or maybe it would be already? Handwavey guess, but I've figured git to be more efficient client-side=20 for some time. Server-side I don't know about, but I've presumed that's=20 the reason the switch-to-git plans haven't included switching the default= =20 for user-syncs to git. I expect user/client side, git would be more=20 efficient already, but as I said, that's handwavey guesses. --=20 Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
