Subject: [PATCH 2/2] format-patch: move range/inter diff at the end of a single patch output
Date: Thu, 23 May 2024 15:50:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240523225007.2871766-3-gitster@pobox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240523225007.2871766-1-gitster@pobox.com>

When running "format-patch" on a multiple patch series, the output
coming from "--interdiff" and "--range-diff" options is inserted
after the "shortlog" list of commits and the overall diffstat.

The idea is that shortlog/diffstat are shorter and with denser
information content, which gives a better overview before the
readers dive into more details of range/inter diff.

When working on a single patch, however, we stuff the inter/range
diff output before the actual patch, next to the diffstat.  This
pushes down the patch text way down with inter/range diff output,
distracting readers.

Move the inter/range diff output to the very end of the output,
after all the patch text is shown.

As the inter/range diff is no longer part of the commentary block
(i.e., what comes after the log message and "---", but before the
patch text), stop producing "---" in the function that generates
them.
