Perhaps either the description or your reading is wrong. The "--no-index" mode was a hack to allow "git diff" goodies to be used outside the context of "git", and a proper execution of it should have been to send patches to GNU or BSD diff maintainers, not to add the "--no-index" option that is unrelated to "git" to our code. I think it is more correct to list it as a footnote and list separately from the main text, which is what the original SYNOPSIS section does. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
