Subject: Line breaks in org-mode having version control in mind
Date: Sun, 3 Nov 2013 21:28:09 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CF489715-5A5F-4761-968C-D582627E0D3B@gmail.com> (raw)
I am trying to extend my usage of org, and one of the things I want to integrate is version controlling of my org files. This is obviously straight forward, but I am wondering about the best line breaking approach to use. In my LaTeX docs I maintain one physical line per sentence [1]. This way, when I change one word in a paragraph, it affects only one line, and looking for differences between versions is easy. Otherwise, when using fill-paragraph for instance, one gets messy changes of the file, as the one word change can influence the whole paragraph.
Therefore, as I mentioned, in LaTeX I use visual-line-mode and I insert manually line breaks at the end of sentences (or where *I* find appropriate). What would be the best practice for org? I understand that visual-line-mode has some problems when it comes to tables... What other issues are there? What do you do when you keep your org file under VC?
Thanks in advance,
Dror
