Subject: [PATCH 1/4] diff-highlight: add `less -r` to cmd in README
Date: Mon,  2 Nov 2015 21:05:31 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1446516334-27652-2-git-send-email-jonathan.lebon@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1446516334-27652-1-git-send-email-jonathan.lebon@gmail.com>

As it is, the suggested command for trying out diff-highlight will just
dump the whole git log output to the terminal. Let's pipe it through
`less` so users aren't surprised on the first try.
