Re: [Gnu-arch-users] fixing and extending "selected commit"

[Denys Duchier]

what I propose to do in a first step is very simple and can be
optimized and generalized later if need be.  It can be summarized as
follows:

- generate the changeset tables as usual
- prune anything which doesn't match some limit spec

1. files and dirs only in ORIG (deletions)
2. files and dirs only in MOD  (creations)
3. files and dirs in both (moves and modifs)
   only needs to match a limit spec in either ORIG or MOD, but not
   necessarily in both

- write out the pruned changeset data

Cheers,
