Hi, I noticed that "options" variable in diff-no-index.c:diff_no_index() is modified when "-q" is passed but not used (not read) at all. So either it can be removed or it should be used. "-q" is not described in git-diff man page. This code was introduced in 0569e9b8 "git diff": do not ignore index without --no-index" - it was moved from builtin-diff.c (where it was used) but the code was refactored so I can't say if it should still be. $ grep -E -2 '\boptions\b' diff-no-index.c int i; int no_index = 0; unsigned options = 0; /* Were we asked to do --no-index explicitly? */ -- i++; else if (!strcmp(argv[i], "-q")) { options |= DIFF_SILENT_ON_REMOVED; i++; } -- Piotr Krukowiecki -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
