Subject: Tutorial problem a/a a/b
Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2005 15:20:05 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1122582005.12374.6.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In the tutorial the user is instructed to create two files: a and b.
Then when the user diffs the files, they see this:
diff --git a/a b/a
That really confused somebody and I had to untangle their brain. :-) I
don't have a patch for it, but thought I'd point out: perhaps a and b
aren't the best example filenames given git's diff format. :-D
