The first entry is apparently wrong, format-patch never interprets it this way, as far as I can tell. This is particularly problematic since it's the first one listed in the man page... I don't know how to fix this issue without duplicating diff-options.txt, hopefully someone will be more inspired than me ;) Thanks, Kevin
