[PATCH v2 0/2] Teach "diff" to ignore only CR at EOL

[Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>]

This time with doc updates and tests.  The previous one is at 

https://public-inbox.org/git/xmqqshe7j0af.fsf@gitster.mtv.corp.google.com

A change that is supposed to only change the end-of-line convention
between LF <-> CRLF and nothing else can be verified with "diff -b"
or "diff --ignore-space-at-eol" in practice, but these hide changes
in whitespaces other than the carriage return at the end of the lines.

These two patches introduce a new --ignore-cr-at-eol option so that
only CR at eol and no other whitespace changes are ignored while
making a comparison, to allow a stricter validation.

I am not sure how much practical value the new option has.  The
preliminary clean-up patch to shuffle the bis assignment for flags
does have values, though ;-).

Junio C Hamano (2):
  xdiff: reassign xpparm_t.flags bits
  diff: --ignore-cr-at-eol
