It's very simple, our tools should warn people about it, that is exactly why we have tools in the first place: to make life easier and to reduce the number of things people have to remember. I can't see any reason why the pre-commit check could whine if people attempt to take one or more files off vendorbranches, but on the other hand I would think that POLA dictates that we move _all_ vendor code under contrib -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 phk@FreeBSD.ORG | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
