| -p::
 | |
| 	Generate patch (see section on generating patches)
 | |
| 
 | |
| -u::
 | |
| 	Synonym for "-p".
 | |
| 
 | |
| -z::
 | |
| 	\0 line termination on output
 | |
| 
 | |
| --name-only::
 | |
| 	Show only names of changed files.
 | |
| 
 | |
| --name-status::
 | |
| 	Show only names and status of changed files.
 | |
| 
 | |
| --full-index::
 | |
| 	Instead of the first handful characters, show full
 | |
| 	object name of pre- and post-image blob on the "index"
 | |
| 	line when generating a patch format output.	
 | |
| 
 | |
| --abbrev[=<n>]::
 | |
| 	Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal object
 | |
| 	name in diff-raw format output and diff-tree header
 | |
| 	lines, show only handful hexdigits prefix.  This is
 | |
| 	independent of --full-index option above, which controls
 | |
| 	the diff-patch output format.  Non default number of
 | |
| 	digits can be specified with --abbrev=<n>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| -B::
 | |
| 	Break complete rewrite changes into pairs of delete and create.
 | |
| 
 | |
| -M::
 | |
| 	Detect renames.
 | |
| 
 | |
| -C::
 | |
| 	Detect copies as well as renames.
 | |
| 
 | |
| --diff-filter=[ACDMRTUXB*]::
 | |
| 	Select only files that are Added (`A`), Copied (`C`),
 | |
| 	Deleted (`D`), Modified (`M`), Renamed (`R`), have their
 | |
| 	type (mode) changed (`T`), are Unmerged (`U`), are
 | |
| 	Unknown (`X`), or have had their pairing Broken (`B`).
 | |
| 	Any combination of the filter characters may be used.
 | |
| 	When `*` (All-or-none) is added to the combination, all
 | |
| 	paths are selected if there is any file that matches
 | |
| 	other criteria in the comparison; if there is no file
 | |
| 	that matches other criteria, nothing is selected.
 | |
| 
 | |
| --find-copies-harder::
 | |
| 	For performance reasons, by default, -C option finds copies only 
 | |
| 	if the original file of the copy was modified in the same 
 | |
| 	changeset.  This flag makes the command
 | |
| 	inspect unmodified files as candidates for the source of
 | |
| 	copy.  This is a very expensive operation for large
 | |
| 	projects, so use it with caution.
 | |
| 
 | |
| -l<num>::
 | |
| 	-M and -C options require O(n^2) processing time where n
 | |
| 	is the number of potential rename/copy targets.  This
 | |
| 	option prevents rename/copy detection from running if
 | |
| 	the number of rename/copy targets exceeds the specified
 | |
| 	number.
 | |
| 
 | |
| -S<string>::
 | |
| 	Look for differences that contain the change in <string>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| --pickaxe-all::
 | |
| 	When -S finds a change, show all the changes in that
 | |
| 	changeset, not just the files that contain the change
 | |
| 	in <string>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| -O<orderfile>::
 | |
| 	Output the patch in the order specified in the
 | |
| 	<orderfile>, which has one shell glob pattern per line.
 | |
| 
 | |
| -R::
 | |
| 	Swap two inputs; that is, show differences from index or
 | |
| 	on-disk file to tree contents.
