Important GIT tricks


  1. To view the diff of the files using vimdiff, 
    1. Open ~/.gitconfig and append the following lines
      [diff]
        external = git_diff_wrapper
NOTE: you can also do it, by issuing "git config --global diff.tool vimdiff", but I have not tried.

2. To ignore the cscope files showing from "git status [-s]", do the following.
- go to the working directory
- and add cscope file(s) in .gitignore file
