Various programs that I use ([Open|Libre]Office, Vym, etc) use a zipped/.tgz'ed file format, usually containing multiple (usually) plain-text files within. I'm trying to figure out a way for git to treat these as virtual directories for purposes of merging/diffing. Reading up on clean/smudge filters, it looks like they expect one file coming in and one file going out, rather than one file on one side and a directory-tree of files on the other side. I tried creating my own pair of clean/smudge filters that would uncompress the files, but there's no good way put multiple files on stdout. Has anybody else played with such a scheme for uncompressing files as they go into git and recompressing them as they come back out? -tkc -- 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
