This looks much better.

But what is pretty_given doing here? In git-log, it's turning on notes for the default case when no format is given. But here, if no format has been given we _wouldn't_ want to show notes. I think it's relatively harmless, since our default format is not to do any pretty-printing, and therefore we wouldn't look at the notes. But it does cause us to call load_display_notes() when we don't need to. I think that conditional can be simplified to just: if (!opt->show_notes_given && w.notes) opt->show_notes = 1; > Fix this by initializing the notes machinery after parsing our options, > and harden this behavior against regression with a test in t4013.

This makes the test update rather hard to follow, but I don't think there's an easy way around it. I wondered if we could insert and remove our notes just for our tests, but it's hard to do with the big while loop in that script. I also thought it might not be that bad to just add a few tests at the end, but there are some complications (like removing sha1s from the output; easily done with a custom format, but the point is to test --pretty). So what you have is probably the most sensible thing (and the new commit would make it easier to test other commands around notes later, if we chose to). > @@ -398,6 +407,8 @@ diff --no-index --raw --no-abbrev dir2 dir > > diff-tree --pretty --root --stat --compact-summary initial > diff-tree --pretty -R --root --stat --compact-summary initial > +diff-tree --pretty --notes note > +diff-tree --format=%N note > diff-tree --stat --compact-summary initial mode > diff-tree -R --stat --compact-summary initial mode Perhaps worth testing that: diff-tree --pretty note does not print any notes by default? -Peff
