Some text documents in my repository is encoded in EUC-JP and I have this line in my .gitattributes file. *.txt diff=eucjp and these two lines in my .git/config file. [diff "eucjp"] textconv = nkf-w And I have ~/bin/nkf-w script that is executable. #!/bin/sh nkf -w "$@" The command takes a (Japanese) text file and converts it into UTF-8 (it guesses the input encoding). I need this extra script because setting 'nkf -w' for textconv like this [diff "eucjp"] textconv = nkf -w gives an error. % diff --git a/hello.txt b/hello.txt index 696acd7..f07aa1a 100644 error: cannot run nkf -w: No such file or directory error: error running textconv command 'nkf -w' fatal: unable to read files to diff Could you fix textconv so that it can be given parameters? -- Nanako Shiraishi http://ivory.ap.teacup.com/nanako3/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: 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
