The --check option is handled in diff.c (you can find out by e.g. "git grep -e --check -- \*"). Thus, it should be documented in Documentation/diff-options.txt. The easiest way to find out what it does is to execute: git log -S--check diff.c This will lead you to v1.4.0-rc1~110. The file format for Documentation/*.txt is easily imitated by looking at the context, and maybe eventually "make doc" (you'll need asciidoc for that). Once you made that change, just commit and make a patch with "git format-patch HEAD^". Submit. Be famous.
