[darcs-devel] PatchPlugins / XML files

[Allan Lyons]

Hi,

On http://wiki.darcs.net/DarcsWiki/PatchPlugins there is discussion 
about different "atomic" patch types.  The page points out that test 
files are different from binary files and suggests that those two cases 
might be handled adequately.  It also points out that XML is different 
from both text and binary.  (XML is kind of like text but the file might 
have no line endings, patches really shouldn't break the 
well-formedness of documents, etc.)

I've looked, but so far I haven't seen whether anything like treating 
structured data like XML separately from text and binary has been 
attempted.  Is anyone else interested in this sort of thing?

Or has handling XML in darcs already been addressed and I just haven't 
seen it yet?

Thanks,

Allan.
