IOW, fast-import could accept such a minor deviation and generate a commit after fixing it. The same thing can be said about fast-export --- read, fix and generate. By the way, your quick hack would however squash multiple SPs anywhere on the line, wouldn't it, not just the one between '>' and the timestamp? -- 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
