You lost --stat, --name-only and friends that were implied by mentioning "diff-tree". I agree your _motivation_ behind your original patch is good. Saying "see also that page if you want to do very exotic and rarely useful operation" is one thing, but saying "described are most often used ones" and not describing enough is bad. Perhaps we would want to include diff-options.txt. There may be some options that are no-op or always-on in the context of "git show" in the file, but we already have an infrastracture to turn parts of the inclusion on and off depending on which manual page includes it. > diff --git a/Documentation/git-show.txt b/Documentation/git-show.txt > index dccf0e2..299b611 100644 > --- a/Documentation/git-show.txt > +++ b/Documentation/git-show.txt > @@ -25,12 +25,6 @@ with \--name-only). > > For plain blobs, it shows the plain contents. > > -The command takes options applicable to the linkgit:git-diff-tree[1] command to > -control how the changes the commit introduces are shown. > - > -This manual page describes only the most frequently used options. > - > - > OPTIONS > ------- > <object>:: > @@ -38,6 +32,9 @@ OPTIONS > For a more complete list of ways to spell object names, see > "SPECIFYING REVISIONS" section in linkgit:git-rev-parse[1]. > > +-s:: > + Don't show a textural diff for commits. > + > include::pretty-options.txt[] > > > -- > 1.5.5.1.91.g499fc.dirty -- 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
