[PATCH/RFC 2/6] docs: note that status configuration affects only long format

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

Combined with the --short/--porcelain distinction introduced later in
the series, should short perhaps respect status.relativePaths and
status.submoduleSummary? Which would mean replacing this patch with ones
to make those things work. :)
