color-words: take an optional regular expression describing words
In some applications, words are not delimited by white space. To allow for that, you can specify a regular expression describing what makes a word with git diff --color-words='[A-Za-z0-9]+' Note that words cannot contain newline characters. As suggested by Thomas Rast, the words are the exact matches of the regular expression. Note that a regular expression beginning with a '^' will match only a word at the beginning of the hunk, not a word at the beginning of a line, and is probably not what you want. This commit contains a quoting fix by Thomas Rast. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
