P.S. I'm trying to read the Git source code to get a better handle
on what actually goes on in the index but this is taking some time.
Depending on the style of the learner, I often recommend reading the
very initial revision of Git, i.e. e83c5163 (Initial revision of
"git", the information manager from hell, 2005-04-07), to quickly
get a feel of what various pieces there are and how they fit
together, by doing
$ git checkout -b initial e83c5163316f89bfb
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll do that.
Meanwhile, do you see any merit to my idea?
Cordially,
Jon Forrest
