[PATCH] emacs: work with remote filesystems

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



With this patch, it is possible to work on remote filesystems which
were made accessible by tramp.

For example, 'M-x git-status /remote-host:/repository' will show the
status of /repository on 'remote-host' and usual operations like add
or commit are supported there.

First part of the is patch is trivial and replaces 'call-process' with
the network transparent 'process-file'.

The second one is more extensive and implements a tramp wrapper for
'call-process-region'.
