Subject: [PATCH 1/3] diff-format.adoc: remove mention of diff-tree specific output
Date: Fri, 15 May 2026 15:48:09 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7e48be4024b3a2a75b8c549653d13585c9e88fb7.1778860091.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.2304.git.git.1778860091.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Philippe Blain <levraiphilippeblain@gmail.com>
In the "Raw output format" section, we start by mentioning that 'git
diff-tree' prints the hashes of what is being compared. This is only
true in --stdin mode, and is already mentioned in the description of
'--stdin' in git-diff-tree.adoc. Remove this sentence such that we only
focus on the common output between diff-tree, diff-index, diff-files and
diff --raw.
