The option to -M<num>, -C<num>, -B<num>/<num> are "raise or lower the similarity threshold to <num> / 10^N" where N is the number of digits in <num>.

You should also be able to say -M40% but that is an ancient part of the code base so I might be misremembering things. -- 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
