Hi,

on IRC, "cehteh" requested that I send an updated version of the script. It was submitted when a short-lived option of git-diff was used, so the first publicised version no longer works.

This has seen a tremendous amount of work by Jason Chu, which made it work more like darcs when called as "bash git-hunk-commit.bash --darcs".

It still relies heavily on bash arrays.

Ciao, Dscho
