It would be great if they looked like CVS diffs. I poked around in the doc and I don't see anything. Is this specified somewhere and I missed it? I see that the diff code is from libxdiff but I haven't figured out how it is being used yet. I'm trying to build a small app that takes a CVS ,v and writes out a pack corresponding to the versions. Suggestions on the most efficient strategy for doing this by calling straight into the git C code? Forking off git commands is not very efficient when done a million times. -- Jon Smirl jonsmirl@gmail.com
