[Python-Dev] Looking for VCS usage scenarios (original) (raw)

Since I have never seen that come up during Python's development I am going to leave it out. But I do see the benefit and how it might help with future work.

Of course, that's entirely up to you. But it strikes me as an odd approach to the selection of scenarios for a tool whose intention is precisely to support new usage scenarios.

As I mentioned in the doc, the first example allows for whatever the DVCS does for diffs, whether that is a full-on branch or not.

Are you looking for new scenarios or for the validation of your document? :-)

I'm talking about history-carrying diffs which can be attached and sent via mail, not about viewing plain diffs, which every VCS tool in the world can do since version 0.0.

Anyway, I guess you already have what you want. Good luck picking the right choice!
