From: Johannes Sixt Date: Fri, 03 Oct 2008 08:28:49 GMT Subject: [PATCH] git-gui: Show a round number of bytes of large untracked text files Message-ID: <48E5D7C1.7050404@viscovery.net> From: Johannes Sixt If an untracked text file is selected, then its contents are displayed instead of a diff. If the file is large, then the following hint is inserted at the top: * Untracked file is 14774881 bytes. * Showing only first 131072 bytes. Why exactly 131072 bytes? With this patch it is 100000 bytes. Signed-off-by: Johannes Sixt --- Another bikeshed to paint. ;) Every now and then I stumble over this number, and I ask myself, why are those h4x3rs so binary? -- Hannes lib/diff.tcl | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/diff.tcl b/lib/diff.tcl index abe502d..6e08704 100644 --- a/lib/diff.tcl +++ b/lib/diff.tcl @@ -164,7 +164,7 @@ proc show_other_diff {path w m cont_info} { # - Git won't give us the diff, there's nothing to compare to! # if {$m eq {_O}} { - set max_sz [expr {128 * 1024}] + set max_sz 100000 set type unknown if {[catch { set type [file type $path] -- 1.6.0.2.319.gffa7c
