That’s what I intended to mean.

I’m wondering based on the emails so far if the error message should
spell out that (1) you can help yourself beyond reporting
i-still-use-this and specifically that (2) there is a git-log(1)
equivalent (like git-whatchanged(1) says).

The message itself reads like it could be read like: tell us and we
might put the brakes on removing it (and that’s it).
