[PATCH 2/3 v2] Teach git diff-tree --stdin to diff trees

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When feeding trees on the command line, you can give exactly two
trees, not three nor one; --stdin now supports this "two tree" form on
its input, in addition to accepting lines with one or more commits.

When diffing trees (either specified on the command line or from the
standard input), the -m, -s, -v, --pretty, --abbrev-commit,
--encoding, --no-commit-id, -c, --cc, and --always options are
ignored, since they do not apply to trees.

With updated commit message. (And I checked -- your earlier doc patch
_is_ obsoleted by this patch, so I saw no need to change anything
else.)
