Subject: [geda-user] schdiff via git doesn't show any components

I came across this problem:
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/geda/+bug/904633> and i have posted a fix.
Briefly, I've written a wrapper script which identifies the working
directory, moves the old file there, runs schdiff, and then cleans up
before exiting.

To use this:
1. Download and unzip the files
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/geda/+bug/904633/+attachment/3650682/+files/schdiffpatch.zip)
2. Copy the wrapper script gschemdiff somewhere, making sure it is executable.
3. Copy the .gitattibutes file at the top level of working tree - next
to the .git directory.
4. Append the lines in the config file either to the project specific
config file or your global git config file (~/.gitconfig), taking care
to provide the correct absolute path to wherever you have copied the
wrapper script gschemdiff.

Usage:
git diff filename.sch
should now launch schdiff output with all symbols in place. All other
files' diffs should be shown as before.

Comments are welcome!
