Me neither, but it sure would be nice to be able to tell git "this is not a functional change" (just think of the yearly copyright notice update). git has no way of verifying that it's a non-functional change, of course, so it would just be a hint to the UI. That could then be used by nefarious people to sneak in functional changes but mark them as non-functional. So it's probably not a workable idea. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
