Should `bzr add' ask for confirmation before doing > this? There'd be very little justification for such a prompt: - prompts suck for command line tools that can be used in scripts (or by Emacs packages ;-) - "bzr add" prints the list of files it actually added, so if it adds some files you didn't expect, you have a fair chance of noticing it after the fact. - the effect of an overzealous "bzr add" can be cancelled without harm any time until the next "commit". - it's usually recommended to use " diff" before a " commit" so as to make sure you don't commit something by mistake, and that would give one last chance to catch a "bzr add" that added more than expected. -- Stefan
