Subject: Stop installing the backward compatible symlinks.
X-Git-Tag: v0.99.8~63
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cf408cb4a002855a9ffb58009c5f40da7f68b55e;p=git.git

Stop installing the backward compatible symlinks.

Also cmd-renames.sh can now be used to remove the backward compatible
symlinks -- this is not used by default in any way.

As discussed on the list with Pasky, git-ssh-push and git-ssh-pull will
keep calling each other for a while longer.
