Yes, I understand, but I just don't like using 'grip'. And it would be nice to have some convention for further not-ready-yet built-in replacements for script versions of commands, for example adding letter 'b' as 'built-in' at the beginning of command name: 'bgrep', 'bdiff'. Or use postfix 'n' or '-ng' to denote transitionary not-ready-yet new version of command: 'grepn', 'diffn' or 'grep-ng', 'diff-ng'. By the way, [my] grep is linked against libpcre - would it mean that git would also need to use pcre library, or at least have an option to use it? I also wonder if anyone would be interested to _force_ using external grep (probably enhanced)... just a thought. -- Jakub Narebski Warsaw, Poland - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
