Subject: [PATCH] update diff-delta.c copyright
Date: Fri, 25 May 2007 22:16:27 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.0.99.0705252202160.3366@xanadu.home> (raw)
There is actually nothing left from the original LibXDiff code I used
over 2 years ago, and even the GIT implementation has diverged quite a
bit from LibXDiff's at this point. Let's update the copyright notice
to better reflect that fact.
