I don't think it's worth adding unless somebody really wants it. I don't either.

It is a bit unsatisfactory that we already said this does not take negative form or any argument in the option[] array, and still have to do this, but that is completely outside the topic of this series. > + diff_set_default_prefix(options); > + return 0; > +} > + > static enum parse_opt_result diff_opt_output(struct parse_opt_ctx_t *ctx, > const struct option *opt, > const char *arg, int unset) > @@ -5564,6 +5575,9 @@ struct option *add_diff_options(const struct option *opts, > OPT_CALLBACK_F(0, "no-prefix", options, NULL, > N_("do not show any source or destination prefix"), > PARSE_OPT_NONEG | PARSE_OPT_NOARG, diff_opt_no_prefix), > + OPT_CALLBACK_F(0, "default-prefix", options, NULL, > + N_("use default prefixes a/ and b/"), > + PARSE_OPT_NONEG | PARSE_OPT_NOARG, diff_opt_default_prefix), > OPT_INTEGER_F(0, "inter-hunk-context", &options->interhunkcontext, > N_("show context between diff hunks up to the specified number of lines"), > PARSE_OPT_NONEG), Thanks.
