* Junio C. Hamano:
I think using multiple regexp is cute, but if we do that, it
should allow people to pick from:
public class Beer
{
int special;
public static void main(String args[])
{
... modified part is here ...
with two regexp matches, say:
/^(public|private|protectd) class (.*)/ then
/^ +.* (\w*\(.*)$/
and define the hunk_header format as something like:
"\[1,2]::\[2,1]"
Even that doesn't work for C++ namespaces, or nested Java classes. 8-(
If you want to do it right, you need to spawn some helper program.
