I would say former. You find out what attributes apply to a path and then consider the collective effect of these attributes that survived. So the second "No it is not text" which is overruled by the "oops, no that is text" later should not get in the picture, I would say. As binary is not just -text and turns other things off, those other things will be off after these three. -- 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
