From 47dd0d595d04ee5283dfd8a0b4cbd6e6de8ad57f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2005 17:21:41 -0800 Subject: diff: --abbrev option When I show transcripts to explain how something works, I often find myself hand-editing the diff-raw output to shorten various object names in the output. This adds --abbrev option to the diff family, which shortens diff-raw output and diff-tree commit id headers.
