I think you don't appreciate the power of Git in this respect. Emacs can do the diff of your checkout and HEAD locally. The neat thing of Git is that you can actually do a cvs-annotate offline, tracking the origin of each line of code. >> This means that GNU-style change logs can be generated >> automatically using tools like `git2cl' [4]. > > Bit overrated those things, the output always seems pretty ordinary. > I suppose of course nobody's forced to use it though. GNU style ChangeLogs are pointless with git. git-log basically offers the same information, and with gitk you get a graphical interface combining commit messages, diffs and file tree-views -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
