I think the suggestion is "It would be good to run ediff (& anything else) without even needing a working copy in any buffer. Just put in the path to the repository, and the specific object in that repository, and read it as if there was no local version- even if there is a local working copy in $temp as part of the implementation." It gets messy when the buffer is writable- one place where the design becomes non-trivial... _______________________________________________ Tramp-devel mailing list Tramp-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/tramp-devel
