How do you think things get done? You test the _technology_ first, and then if that is shown to be workable in a real environment, _then_ do you actually add the polish to make it useful. That was all the patch was. A technology demonstration. I'd really like to hear whether it works in a simple CR/LF environment, because if it doesn't, then it needs some totally different approach. And yes, I could test it myself, but (a) I'm way too lazy and (b) I consciously try to get others involved because it's a better long-term strategy (because I expect to be ay too lazy in the future too) Linus - : 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
