This is what I wrote but haven't pushed out (I will have to tend other topics first): commit 9f12bec4386fc96e5b617268822cbb75e4c76101 Author: Brian Gernhardt Date: Sun Nov 4 10:31:26 2007 -0500 t3502: Disambiguate between file and rev by adding -- On a case insensitive file system, this test fails because git-diff doesn't know if it is asking for the file "A" or the tag "a".
