FWIW I am very much in favor of this feature. I often wished for something easy to make sure that certain lines (which I know are unchanged) are not marked as "-" and then "+". And Jonathan's design (--anchor=<prefix>) seems sound. If need be, I can always extend it to (--anchor-regex=<pattern>). Ciao, Dscho
