Our diffs and merges depend on walking two (or more) sorted lists, and that sort order is baked in the tree objects when they are created. Using "normalized comparison" only when comparing the earliest elements picked from these sorted lists would not give you the correct comparison or merge results, would it? -- 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
