[PATCH 0/3] format-patch: learn --[no-]range-diff-notes

[kristofferhaugsbakk@fastmail.com]

From: Kristoffer Haugsbakk <code@khaugsbakk.name>

Topic name: kh/format-patch-range-diff-notes

Topic summary: Teach 'format-patch' options to tweak notes output in the
range diff independent of what notes are output in the patches.

See patch 3/3 for details.

This is motivated by wanting to turn off range diff notes, but the goal
here is to implement it in full generality.

(How many of us `git format-patch --notes` users are there out there? More
than a dozen?)

I have implemented this behavior for myself and used it for many
months. But that was hacky and only suitable for one person’s use.
So this is a completely new implementation. In other words: this is
new code, *not* tested for months.

§ CI

I seem to have finally learned now that I ought to push to my public Git
tree for CI, not my private one. The latter seems to consistently give me
“insufficient funds” errors. But I don’t know.
