From: Piotr Krukowiecki Date: Thu, 17 Feb 2011 20:40:08 GMT Subject: Commit/merge messages for binary files Message-ID: Hi, there's a different output when committing change and when merging change for a binary file. Do the insertions/deletions have any meaning for binary files? For example: $ git commit -m Updated [topic 5da30ce] Updated 1 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 103 deletions(-) rewrite blob.o (100%) $ git merge topic Updating 75ab259..5da30ce Fast-forward blob.o | Bin 25920 -> 4364 bytes 1 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) -- Piotrek
