[ofw] ConnectX branch

[Tzachi Dar]

Until Leonid has a chance to do the change you ask, there is another
work around:

Install winmerge (sourceforge.net/projects/winmerge).
Open tools->filters->LineFilters
Add a new filter with $Id

This should allow one to see only the files that have changed in other
places than the $Id line.

Thanks
Tzachi
