Jeff King has convinced me that it's perfectly legitimate to introduce  
non-upward compatibilities in minor version releases of "young"  
software.

My introduction to the problem was Tuesday of this week and this  
thread.  The reasoning that I generally saw in this thread was insane,  
and it scared me.  With some of the feedback I received, I now see a  
bigger picture where these decisions aren't so willy-nilly.

I think the lesson here, however, it that the correct way to have done  
this is to first remove all the git<DASH>'s from the source, demos,  
sample, documentation, etc.  Second, BIG PAUSE (full minor version  
release cycle?) Then, third, get rid of git<DASH> in <prefix>/bin.

The doctor expects my full recovery tomorrow.  8)

Thanks!
