Subject: [PATCH 0/2] improve combined diff documentation
Date: Sat,  5 Mar 2011 11:56:42 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1299355004-3532-1-git-send-email-haircut@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4D724A0F.7050904@gmail.com>

The "combined diff format" documentation in diff-generate-patch.txt
incorrectly implied that "log -p" shows conflict resolutions as
combined diffs.

With these small documentation fixes I'm hoping to save someone the
time it took me to figure out how a merge conflict was resolved.

Related thread:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/168481

The patches apply cleanly to maint.

Hope this helps,
-Adam ("meonkeys" on IRC)

Adam Monsen (2):
  documentation fix: git log -p does not imply -c.
  English grammar fixes for combined diff doc.
