C# methods in git diff hunk headers

Read Original

This technical article explains how to improve git diff output for C# files. It details the issue where git's built-in patterns don't recognize modern C# keywords like 'async' in method signatures, causing confusing hunk headers. The solution involves setting a custom regex pattern (xfuncname) in the git configuration to override the outdated defaults and correctly display method names in diffs.
