gitk is unlikely to be used on an embedded system, the perl pieces more so. I have never understood why people complain about readability in perl. Just because it uses the ascii charset a bit more? You expect a mathematician or indeed any scientist to use special symbols to mean special things, why not programmers? Perhaps people should be forced to use COBOL for a few years (like I did, a long while ago) to appreciate brevity. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
