Re: First round of UGFWIINI results

Johannes Schindelin:

Number 10:
Sergio Callegari describes how to manage opendocument (openoffice.org) files

Which is very nice, it saved me several megabytes of disk space :-)

Git was clearly intended to track source code stored as small ASCII
files; otherwise, 'git diff' would not be such an integral part of
Git.

Still, I have "git diff" working fine for OpenOffice Writer documents
here, using "oodiff" that I found somewhere I cannot remember...

Now, if only OpenOffice could be told not to store the documents as zip
files, but rather as a directory, I wouldn't have to fool Git using the
rezipper. Or perhaps one should implement support in Git to store zip
files expanded (and just create the .zip on checkout)?

Then one could even merge conflicts between concurrent edits.
