[PATCH v1 2/2] documentation: mention --no-use-mailmap and log.mailmap false setting

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

 



The log.mailmap setting may be explicitly set to false, which disables
the mailmap feature implicity. In practice, doing so is equivalent to
always using the previously undocumented --no-use-mailmap option on the
command line.

Accordingly, we document both the existence of --no-use-mailmap as
well as briefly discuss the equivalence of it to log.mailmap=False.
