I agree. Whoever wrote the textconv code was a genius. ;) But I did want to note that textconv is just _one_ way of seeing the data. You can also have git invoke custom diff and merge handlers.

I thought somebody had done some work on this, but I can't seem to dig up a link. -Peff -- 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
