The thing that generates them takes a branch name as argument; turns out that it (pretty much by accident) treats the missing argument as HEAD. Which tends to give reasonable diffstat and shortlog, so I hadn't spotted the missing check until now. Fixed. BTW, is there any better way to get the current branch name than git branch |sed -ne '/\* /s///p'? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
