That might be more "manly" but much less friendly to humans compared to what your patch gives us. These two modes are really about two different operations (the latter is not "strip" at all, but is about adding spaces, to which "comments" are often equated to), and two-line synopsis shows more prominently that they are distinct, which I think is the right thing to do. > diff --git a/Documentation/git-stripspace.txt > b/Documentation/git-stripspace.txt > index c87bfcb..6c6e989 100644 > --- a/Documentation/git-stripspace.txt > +++ b/Documentation/git-stripspace.txt > @@ -10,6 +10,7 @@ SYNOPSIS > -------- > [verse] > 'git stripspace' [-s | --strip-comments] < input > +'git stripspace' [-c | --comment-lines] < input > > DESCRIPTION > ----------- -- 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
