Add Verilog built-in to userdiff.c. I read the code and checked the previous mailing list. I found that if I want git to recognize Verilog syntax, I need to add Verilog regular expressions to the userdiff_driver array of userdiff.c and modify the .gitattributes file.
Yes, I did it.
The next step is to write test cases and submit patches.
I am not sure if this is in line with the development process specifications. Maybe I should make some adjustments. If so, please let me know.
