When you have branches A, B and C, and a path F is the same between branches A and B but different in branch C, if you start from branch C and switch to branch A, F will be updated and obtain your smudge tailored for "branch A's instance of F". But if you then switch to B from that state, F will not even be modified (i.e. it will keep the contents you prepared for "branch A's instance of F"). In short, do not make clean/smudge depend on anything but blob contents. -- 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
