Not so much a bug, but rather a suggestion (I didn't know who else to mail
this to - no other email mentioned on website).
We have a great deal of CVS files with multi-line Commit-Comments akin to,
+ new feature BLAH added
+ source stripped from FOO
+ user FREAK accounted for
etc.
some start with '+', some with '-' others with '*' and yet more with
nothing but new sentences.
Here's my question, if I run cvs2cl.pl on what's noted above I get ONE
paragraph with all the '+' jumbled inside something akin to
* AUTHORS, TODO, dict_admin.cgi, dict_create.pl, dict_header.pl,
dict_lib.pl, dict_main.cgi: + Added reconfirm password change (for
admin) + Added hidden/setting attributes + Extracted all the embed
files to _header + Added ability to create db.tables by a different
user (if need be) + Corrected dict_main typos in
Not very readable -- it would be best if it was something like this instead,
* AUTHORS, TODO, dict_admin.cgi, dict_create.pl, dict_header.pl,
dict_lib.pl, dict_main.cgi:
+ Added reconfirm password change (for admin)
+ Added hidden/setting attributes
+ Extracted all the embed files to _header
+ Added ability to create db.tables by a different user (if
need be)
+ Corrected dict_main typos in
Note continuation of line starts under first letter of line (ie. below 'A'
not below '*' or '+' to give a flowing feel to it).
Would you entertain adding a flag to "beautify" output ?
Many Thanks for your response in advance..
- Nadim
