Does this really give a speedup? I'd be surprised, as long as the parse is being done during the output from git using the QProcess::readyRead() signal once and only once, then git is the bottle neck. Parsing the stream is almost trivial in comparison to the work that git is doing. Andy -- Dr Andy Parkins, M Eng (hons), MIET andyparkins@gmail.com
