This option existed in the very first version[1] of range-diff (then called branch-diff) implemented by Dscho, although it was called --no-patches (with an "es"), which it inherited from tbdiff. I think someone (possibly me) pointed out that --no-patch (sans "es") would be more consistent with existing Git options. I don't recall why Dscho removed the option during the re-rolls, but the explanation may be in that thread. I was also wondering if --summarize or --summary-only might be a better name, describing the behavior at a higher level, but since there is precedent for --no-patch (or --no-patches in tbdiff), perhaps the name is fine as is. The patch itself looks okay. [1]: https://public-inbox.org/git/8bc517e35d4842f8d9d98f3b99adb9475d6db2d2.1525361419.git.johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx/
