I think that reasoning is flawed. gitfm offers a different functionality as git-scm. Desciding if you're running interactively or not is IMHO a hack you had to add because of #362543. If a user calls /usr/bin/git, it really _is_ completely different. > What other way is there for a neat transition for stable users? As stated above I believe it violates policy, but I happen to think that it's actually a really nice way to transition /usr/bin/git. So I'd propose to ask debian-release if we can tag this etch-ignore or downgrade to important for the timeframe of etch. That would IMHO be the nicest solution for this. Comments?
