Perhaps the documentation would need to be clarified? I suspect
this is not very useful combination [*1*] and if this were years
ago, I would suggest making the command line error out, instead of
silently ignore one and keep the other one in effect.
[Footnote]
*1* "--patch --stat --summmary" was designed as the standard "both a
summary as well as the changes".
