It is not git-am that should have implemented -l / --ignore-whitespace option, but git-apply... well, beside passing it to git-apply of course. I tried to look up how git-apply is implemented (builtin-apply.c), but it looks like it implements patching itself, and I am not familiar at all with this code... BTW. why applying patch is not left to xdiff code? It would be nice if git-apply implemented larger subset of GNU patch options, for example --dry-run (which is similar but I think not exactly the same as --check), --fuzz=<num> (how it differs from -C<n>?) --strip=<num> as equivalent to -p<n>, -l / --ignore-whitespace, --reject-file=<rejectfile> together with --reject... -- Jakub Narebski Poland ShadeHawk on #git -- 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
