[PATCH] diff --no-index: support more than one file pair

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

 



This allows you to do

git diff --no-index file1.old file1.new file2.old file2.new...

It could be seen as an abuse of "git --no-index", but it's very
tempting considering many bells and whistles git's diff machinery
provides.

 Sorry I used git@vger as a personal archive, but this might benefit
 others as well, I think.
