I earlier said "50% of the time it is correct, you just do not remember", but such an option with configuration variable would let somebody interested set it permanently for his daily use of Git, and it would help him to find out (1) if he sees a "Huh?" division less (or more) often than he used to, and (2) if it gives a better division for the same change to view the diff with the plain-vanilla heuristic. -- 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
