I tentatively amended your patch to read like this: We used to underline a header text, like this: This is a header ---------------- content... But calculating text length so that the dashes align with the text could get complicated because the text could be in any charset in translated Git. There is no point to use this pseudo underline; simply a blank line would do and it even makes it easier to read: This is a header content... and adjusted the code to match, but it may make more sense to use the GIT_COLOR* stuff for this to highlight the header line, allowing us to lose the extra empty line. This patch obviously conflicts with your own nd/columns so we may want to take this slowly and it is OK to wait until columns graduates. -- 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
