I use "git commit" after merges, but to actual commit a change (where I need to write a ChangeLog), I use vc-dir and hence vc-next-action. So, yes, I use vc-next-action frequently, and it always means "commit". I suggested it many years ago (in the context of CVS, IIRC): VC should offer each operation via a separate command (and vc-next-action would simply be built on top of it). Regarding your other suggestions: I'm fine with extending vc-next-action, but it should not offer a functionality which is not already available via some other command. Stefan
