What you describe is generally true for *all* XML-based formats, merging is risky when using (line-based) tools that are developed for merging source code. AFAICS there are two options: 1. Make git treat .dsx files as executables, i.e. never merge them automatically, or 2. Configure git to use a .dsx/XML-aware tool for merging (see gitattributes(5) for details) /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0x927912051716CE39 email: mag...@therning.org jabber: mag...@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain, and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality. -- Albert Einstein -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
