I would do :{symlink}* diff=symlinkdiffdriverofyourchoice There's also blank quote problem in gitattr. Tricks like 'hello.world' would match path 'hello world' but I'd rather have something better. If ':' is the special char, I could teach gitattr to recognize <colon>+<quote> as a mark to do C quotation without regressions. -- Duy -- 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
