editors that have SCM smarts and know about the files different states can do this i really like the way this works under BK btw --- files are RO until i do the magic thing which will do a 'bk edit' and i can then do checkins or similar as needed (this assumes you can do per-file deltas) - 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
