I guess we lost this at some point; patches to fix that are welcome. > FWIW, I think the most specific should be the default of > "C-x v v" I'm worried that we are arbitrarily changing the defaults, for the sole reason that the new default plays better with someone's workflows. AFAIR, it used to be the case that the order of VCS names in vc-handled-backends determined the way the default is sought out and set. This change (and I think the other one Dmitry mentioned in his response?) change that in a way that doesn't leave any "fire escape" to users who might be setting things up to have a meaningful (for them) order in that list.
