Because?

Much more time? The code is simple.

That's the kind of objective reasoning noone can object to.

Who decides?

I didn't mean to spoil any parties, I just really think the release 
should not be done without at least the rename - if there's no 
auto-migration logic in place. Which I also sent a patch in for that was 
rejected because of either "we don't do renames, ever" or "we never 
guarantee backwards-compatibility"

There is no thread. May I refer to my reply to Nic's inquiry couple of 
minutes ago.

I did sent that in before.

So this is a remedy we don't need because it can handle a situation we 
actually have. I see.
I don't like being stuck, do you?

As a new horrible default that is to be forced upon AT LEAST seven 
thousand users (http://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=tmux)
starting tomorrow. They will have to cope with it for a couple of months 
- at least if they are dependent on stable releases.
That's a really good idea.

Never said there was a connection between them.
The new osdep_get_cwd() code only gets the HOME dir for some programs 
(like the "less" pager), while the old one will get the real current dir 
just fine. Wanted to fix that by falling back to the old behaviour in 
these cases but have to test until satisfied first.

Anyway, got to run. Real lifeā„¢ troubles to care for.
