Right, that's the point. git-diff is currently inconsistent (unless you understand that index comparisons are always recursed, and tree comparisons need it explicitly -- but part of the point of git-diff is to abstract those sorts of details), so this attempts to harmonize the behavior no matter what you're diffing (whether it be --name-status or --raw). If you really want not to recurse, then you have to know you are comparing trees anyway, at which point it makes sense to use the git-diff-tree plumbing. -Peff - 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
