There is a bit more serious issue than coding, actually. Short options. A script wants to use default rename detection threshold for unknown commit $foo whose name might look like a number.

Obviously, "git diff -M-default $foo" would not fly very well. - 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
