diff: funcname and word patterns for perl
The default function name discovery already works quite well for Perl code... with the exception of here-documents (or rather their ending). sub foo { print <<END here-document END return 1; } The default funcname pattern treats the unindented END line as a function declaration and puts it in the @@ line of diff and "grep --show-function" output. With a little knowledge of perl syntax, we can do better. You can try it out by adding "*.perl diff=perl" to the gitattributes file.
