All of the things you said in the message I am responding to are good background information. It would have been nicer if it were part of the initial message, perhaps below the three dash lines, which would have avoided this extra exchange. Thanks again for the patch. Somewhere I heard that there are 10 Rubyista git users for every non Rubyista git user, so I am sure somebody would comment on your patch in a day or two.
