[GRASS-dev] d.rast still noisy

[Michael Barton]

This is not an ambiguous action. I'm picking the version of the file in the
current mapset. For that, it is unnecessary to specify the mapset. So what
if there is another file with the same name in another mapset? I may have 10
files with that name in different places. What does this matter. If I want
to pick any file outside the current mapset, I should specify it. I realize
that if I pick a file in another mapset that has a unique name, I don't
*have* to specify the mapset. But I probably should. I *must* specify the
mapset if I pick a file outside the current mapset that does *not* have a
unique name. So I don't see what the purpose of this warning is.
