Awesome so the diff.$foo.xfuncname is about what I want, except I seem
to need a .gitattributes file per repository.

Is there a way to over-ride the default in a global way so that I can
only change ~/.gitconfig and not bother with all various repos I have?

Another question, the built-in patterns consist of multiple regexes, can
custom patterns also have multiple?

So what worked for me was:

~/.gitconfig:

[diff "cpp"]
xfuncname = "^[[:alpha:]$_].*[^:]$"

and linux-2.6/.gitattributes:

*.h diff=cpp
*.c diff=cpp

What I tried was:

[diff]
xfuncname = "^[[:alpha:]$_].*[^:]$"

But that didn't seem to work.. I also tried ~/.gitattributes, but again,
no joy.
