> No. Ah, well. That's what I expected, but thanks for confirming it. Another (off-list) reply suggested using a script to edit nginx.conf rather than doing it by hand, which looks like the best solution for my specific case. My site-specific config files are generated from templates using a Perl deployment script, and I also have hooks there which I can use to edit nginx.conf without needing to generate the whole thing from a template, and that will also handle nginx config changes coming from debian by re-patching the config the next time we deploy. -- Dave Sherohman
