2005-12-19diff --abbrev: document --abbrev=<n> form.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-4/+5
It was implemented there but was not advertised. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-12-19diff: --abbrev optionLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+7
When I show transcripts to explain how something works, I often find myself hand-editing the diff-raw output to shorten various object names in the output. This adds --abbrev option to the diff family, which shortens diff-raw output and diff-tree commit id headers. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-16diff: --full-indexLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+5
A new option, --full-index, is introduced to diff family. This causes the full object name of pre- and post-images to appear on the index line of patch formatted output, to be used in conjunction with --allow-binary-replacement option of git-apply. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
2005-11-11Change 'cache' to 'index' in the docsLibravatar Lukas_Sandström1-1/+1
This patch makes the documentation refer to the index as index instead of cache, but some references still remain. (e.g. git-update-index.txt) Signed-off-by: Lukas Sandström <lukass@etek.chalmers.se> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-09-24Diff: -l<num> to limit rename/copy detection.Libravatar Junio C Hamano1-0/+7
When many paths are modified, rename detection takes a lot of time. The new option -l<num> can be used to disable rename detection when more than <num> paths are possibly created as renames. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

2005-08-05[PATCH] Assorted documentation patchesLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-2/+2
[jc: Johannes spent time and effort to see how consistent our use of terminilogy is, and as a byproduct made these corrections not related to the terminology unification. I really appreciate it.] Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
