Yes, but when our starting point is that the diffstat summary is not meant for machine consumption, which I tend to agree, that is a logical consequence no matter how you cut it, no? After all, they want to be careless when running format-patch meant for _this_ project whose project language is C locale, but still want to be able to see output that is not meant for machine consumption in their native language, and these are incompatible goals. Giving them a mechanism so that they do not have to remember setting LANG/LC_ALL every time they context switch into this project would be the best we can do, I am afraid. Unless somebody has a better design that does not involve three languages (always C, project language and Klingon), that is. -- 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
