Thanks for the quick response on the channel!

Sure, I can use the goto, if you prefer that.

Btw, I agree that the diff with the loop looks a bit big in the email. But
when you look at it with `git show --ignore-all-space` it's about the same
size of diff as the goto. (And that's how I typically review history of a
repository.)
