Nice idea. I will add it, probably as 'git patch'. > TREE1=$(cat-file commit 2>/dev/null $1 | head -4 | grep ^tree | cut -d' ' -f2) > if [ "$TREE1" = "" ]; then echo 'ge <commit-ID>'; exit -1; fi > PARENT=$(cat-file commit 2>/dev/null $1 | head -4 | grep ^parent | cut -d' ' > -f2) > if [ "$PARENT" = "" ]; then echo 'ge <commit-ID>'; exit -1; fi > TREE2=$(cat-file commit 2>/dev/null $PARENT | head -4 | grep ^tree | cut -d' > ' -f2) > if [ "$TREE2" = "" ]; then echo 'ge <commit-ID>'; exit -1; fi commit-id and parent-id tools might be useful. ;-) -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ C++: an octopus made by nailing extra legs onto a dog. -- Steve Taylor - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
