[Gianfranco Costamagna]

Thanks for pointing out this, I reported the problem upstream on boinc_dev mail list

They should be aware of this problem.

And since xpm images are often detected as C text files (well, they are), some very misleading behavior occurs: git reports my patch as deleting 500+ code lines (when I only deleted 2 icons), and all BOINC xpm files in client/res are invalid because they contain C (and C++) license / copyright notice comments *before* the /* XPM */ header. So they don't thumbnail, no editor besides eog cannot open them, etc. Images should be regarded as binary anyway.
