Subject: [PATCH] rationalize diffcore-rename options and their doc
Date: Wed, 10 Nov 2010 21:27:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1289420833-20602-1-git-send-email-ydirson@altern.org> (raw)

I am ready to take the blame for being the first to introduce
--detect-* options in diff-opts, with the directory-rename stuff.
However, since --find-copies-harder predates everything and is the
only one to be part of a release today, I'd think it would be much
more consistent to use --find- as a common prefix.  And, last but not
least, shorter long options do not hurt.

At the same time, I noticed the manpage could benefit from a small
improvement.
