I'm not sure exactly what "Git uses the sed found on the PATH in git-am" means. This is a general list, not focused specifically on git and/or sed. If you mean that git builds and runs differently depending on whether Apple's (BSD) sed or Fink's (GNU) sed is the first one in the PATH, then the maintainer (cc'ed) potentially should do something to fix that. If, on the other hand, you mean that git only _runs_ differently depending on which sed is the first in the PATH, that's a different matter. It may be the case that there's something that needs to be fixed by our sed maintainer (also cc'ed). Or there may be nothing for us to do other than put a note in the usage section of git's package description. Our sed and the built-in sed _are_ different, but it's probably excessive to forbid people to install Fink's sed just because they have git. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison http://finkakh.wordpress.com/2012/02/21/got-job/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
