2010-02-12git log -p -m: document -m and honor --first-parentLibravatar Petr Baudis1-1/+2
git log -p -m is used to show one merge entry per parent, with an appropriate diff; this can be useful when examining histories where full set of changes introduced by a merged branch is interesting, not only the conflicts. This patch properly documents the -m switch, which has so far been mentioned only as a fairly special diff-tree flag. It also makes the code show full patch entry only for the first parent when --first-parent is used. Thus: git log -p -m --first-parent will show the history from the "main branch perspective", while also including full diff of changes introduced by other merged in branches.
