Hi
Recently i stumbled upon an old stash entry. It was clear to me that the
stash only contained non-indexed worktree changes. So i assumed to get
insight by doing
$ git log -1 -p stash@{0}
But surprisingly the result was "no patch" (The problem which i was not
aware at that time was the fact that a stash commit is a merge). So i asked
a question on stackoverflow (1) an learned that there are different default
options used depending on the git command used:
$ git show stash@{0}
$ git diff stash@{0}^..stash@{0}
work with default, but for git-log i need to
$ git log -1 -p --cc stash@{0}
to make it behave the same. This does not seem reasonable to me, though i
read about commit 1aec791 (2) in git's own repository. What do you think?
Maybe - as a compromise - just show any kind of hint instead of nothing?
Best regards
Henning
