This patch introduces a modified Damerau-Levenshtein algorithm into Git's code base, and uses it with the following penalties to show some similar commands when an unknown command was encountered: swap = 0, insertion = 1, substitution = 2, deletion = 4 A typical output would now look like this: $ git reabse git: 'reabse' is not a git-command. See 'git --help'. Did you mean one of these? rebase merge-base rev-parse remote rerere Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> --- This is just a toy, but might be useful to other people.
[snip] Whow! This is really cool, especially for people that do not know the different commands by heart -- like me. I often know there's a command that's spelled somehow like X but I don't exactly remember. Your patch seems perfect for that situation. :-) Keen on seeing it in a future release. Thanks in advance. Did someone suggest it or was it your very own idea? -- Dirk -- 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
