The output of git-diff includes lines beginning with "+" and "-" to indicate added and deleted lines. A somewhat common task (at least for me) is to want to copy output from a "diff" (usually the deleted lines) and paste it back into my code.
This is quite inconvenient because of the leading "+" and "-" characters. I know there are shell and IDE / editor workarounds but it would be nice if there was a switch to git-diff to make it leave out those characters, especially since "--color" kind of makes those leading characters obsolete. Would it make sense to develop such a switch or has there been work on that already? ______________________________ Tzadik Vanderhoof | Optum360 Sr Software Engineer, NLP Innovation www.optum360.com This e-mail, including attachments, may include confidential and/or proprietary information, and may be used only by the person or entity to which it is addressed.
