Right. Given your latest proposal, where annotate is just prefixing each content lines with the patch hash and a separator, I think it would be wrong "encapsulating" that into whatever markup. You aren't going to do that for "query contents" either :-) That, and the K.I.S.S. principle is respected too! The downside of your proposal is that it could be heavier for a human eye than the "patch index with a legend"... ciao, lele. -- nickname: Lele Gaifax | Quando vivrò di quello che ho pensato ieri real: Emanuele Gaifas | comincerò ad aver paura di chi mi copia. l...@nautilus.homeip.net | -- Fortunato Depero, 1929. _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list darcs-users@darcs.net http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
