As you can (or rather can't ;-)) see this patch didn't made it into list, because with 119,993 characters in format-patch patch it probably exceeds a little bit exceeding 100,000 characters message size limit on VGER. The problem is that it doesn't make sense to send partial patch... well, perhaps reindent and breaking of exceedingly long lines should be split into separate patch... For now you can view the patch via gitweb http://repo.or.cz/w/git/jnareb-git.git/commitdiff/0dd15cb3f18e2a26fc834fd3b071e6d3ecc00557 and apply it from http://repo.or.cz/w/git/jnareb-git.git/patch/0dd15cb3f18e2a26fc834fd3b071e6d3ecc00557 The comment for this message (for this patch) can be seen below. -- >8 -- On Sat, 23 Jan 2010, Jakub Narebski wrote: > This means replacing > > print <something>; > by > print {$out} <something>; > > and > > binmode STDOUT, <layer>; > by > binmode $out, <layer>; > > where $out is global variable set to \*STDOUT at the beginning of > gitweb, but after reading gitweb config.
