Make patches more descriptive
=============================
By default hunk headers of a patch will look like this:
@@ -1227,6 +1227,8 @@ authorization from the authors.
Which is not very usefull as it doesn't give a hint where the change
happened (except for the line number). To make those hunk headers more
descriptive, i.e.:
@@ -1227,6 +1227,8 @@ <struct name="HierarchyChange">
Add these 2 lines to your .git/config file:
[diff "xcb"]
xfuncname = "(<\\b(xcb|enum|event|request|struct|union)\\b.*>)"
For more background on this magic have a look at src/.gitattributes and
the man page gitattributes(5) chapter "Defining a custom hunk-header".
