[PATCH] Teach diff machinery to display other prefixes than "a/" and "b/"

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

 



With the new option "--prefix=<prefix1>[:<prefix2>]" you can change
the shown prefix, or suppress it (by specifying the empty string).

Initial patch by Pascal Obry.

	How about this instead?  It is not much longer, but more 
	versatile, as you can actually change the prefix, and not only in 
	format-patch.

	Oh, and if somebody has a better idea for the name of the option, 
	I would appreciate your input.
