What I originally meant with my comment was to _error_ out if the user says "git log --log-size -p" (or "git show --log-size" without "-s"). But I guess it is probably fine, as long as it is crystal clear to the users that we do not do size for non log part. I still have this nagging feeling that this is an ugly workaround for Qt library's programming interface, though... - 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
