I didn't get time to read the whole thread, but just my 2 cents: Did you have a look at the way Mercurial deals with this? They have a system where files can be ran through arbitrary filters when commited: http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/EncodeDecodeFilter and it can be somehow abused to do keyword expansion. http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/TipsAndTricks#head-f348f796b9560a1cfbdaf3f3f0f7d9d4339266e9 It surely doesn't solve all the problems mentionned in this thread, but the experience can be interesting to look at. -- Matthieu - 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
