Hi,
for the microproject: creating diff function support for different languages. i wrote one for shell script, have tested it outside of git and it works fine.
query regarding accommodating the pattern in: 1) userdiff.c, it uses - #define PATTERNS(name, pattern, word_regex), for defining patterns to locate functions. what is the use of pattern and word_regex parameters ? i am guessing that pattern parameter is the actual pattern to spot functions in a file, and word_regex is used to get function name. is that correct ? please let me know.
