Hi! I find myself tracking OpenOffice files every now and then. Mostly to synchronise to be able to edit documents in multiple locations, less for the actual history. I notice, however, that the Git history tend to grow quite a bit, especially for larger documents (I have a 175 kilobyte spredsheet that has a git database of about 8 megabytes). Since OpenOffice doucuments are just zipped xml files, I wondered how difficult it would be to create some hooks/hack git to track the files inside the archives instead? Alternatively, does anyone know if it is possible to set OpenOffice not to use compression for a saved document? If it was uncompressed text, I would think Git's delta compression would fare better. -- \\// Peter - http://www.softwolves.pp.se/ -- 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
