[PATCH 2/2] git-blame.el: pick a set of random colors when blaming

From

XMXavier Maillard <zedek@gnu.org>

Date

Mar 26, 2007, 21:01 UTC

Message-ID

<200703262101.l2QL1sGL012549@localhost.localdomain>

* Prevent (future possible) namespace clash by renaming `color-scale'
into `git-blame-color-scale'. Definition has been changed to be more
in the "lisp" way (thanks for help goes to #emacs). Also added a small
description of what it does.

* Added docstrings at some point and instructed defvar when a variable
was candidate to customisation by users.

* Added fix to silent byte-compilers (git-blame-file,
git-blame-current)

* Do not require 'cl at startup.

* Added more informations on compatibility
