I'm currently working on a script whose developer does not use

not adding it to git, of course?)
I don't think that this is what you are asking about, but it's a neat
trick anyway :-).
To permanently exclude files from git diff, set up a custom diff driver
in ~/.gitconfig:
[diff "nodiff"]
command = /bin/true
and then mention the files that should use this driver in
.git/info/attributes:
.gitignore diff=nodiff

To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in
the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
