Subject: [PATCH 4/4] doc: note that -L supports patch formatting and pickaxe options
Date: Sat, 07 Mar 2026 01:02:18 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0d3e84a088ec53368a748684268db89064632871.1772845338.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.2065.git.1772845338.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Michael Montalbo <mmontalbo@gmail.com>
Now that -L output flows through the standard diff pipeline,
document that patch formatting options like --word-diff,
--color-moved, --no-prefix, whitespace handling (-w, -b),
and pickaxe options (-S, -G) are supported.

Patch output can be suppressed using `--no-patch`, but other diff formats
(namely `--raw`, `--numstat`, `--shortstat`, `--dirstat`, `--summary`,
`--name-only`, `--name-status`, `--check`) are not currently implemented.
