That said, in the context of git log/show, as opposes to git diff, it all could have been: --diff=<list> where <list> is comma-separated list of options to pass to diff, and then it'd be: --diff=off for the option in question with apparent synonym --no-diff, and less apparent synonym -s. Hold on! Now it starts to sound familiar... --diff-merges! ))) Thanks, -- Sergey Organov
