git-range-diff documentations says that the three-argument form:

git range-diff   

is equivalent to passing two ranges:

git range-diff .. ..

git-format-patch synopsis shows:

git format-patch --range-diff= 

where  is the range of commits to format, and 
can be a range specifying the previous version, so:

git format-patch --range-diff=.. ..

should do what you ask.

However, since the two versions in your example both derive from
origin/master, you should be able to get by with the simpler:

git format-patch --range-diff= ..

which, if you were running git-range-diff manually, would be the equivalent of:

git range-diff ...

for which the range-diff machinery figures out the common base
(origin/master) automatically.


[PATCH v3 00/10] commit-graph write: progress output improvements

2018-11-22 Thread Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason
The "Writing out" progress output was off-by-one because I'd screwed
up a merge conflict. Fix that, and update the various progress output.

On my test setup the "Annotating commit graph" progress sometimes
shows up on linux.git, sometimes not, it's right on that edge of
taking 1 second. So always show it in the commit message examples,
that's less confusing for the reader.

SZEDER Gábor (2):
  commit-graph: rename 'num_extra_edges' variable to 'num_large_edges'
  commit-graph: don't call write_graph_chunk_large_edges() unnecessarily

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason (8):
  commit-graph write: rephrase confusing progress output
  commit-graph write: add "Writing out" progress output
  commit-graph write: more descriptive "writing out" output
  commit-graph write: show progress for object search
  commit-graph write: add more descriptive progress output
  commit-graph write: remove empty line for readability
  commit-graph write: add itermediate progress
  commit-graph write: emit a percentage for all progress

[PATCH v3 00/10] commit-graph write: progress output improvements

2018-11-22 Thread Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason
This incorporates SZEDER's recent two-part series, rebases mine on
top, and fixes a few things while I'm at it. Now there's no progress
output where we don't show a completion percentage.

SZEDER Gábor (2):
  commit-graph: rename 'num_extra_edges' variable to 'num_large_edges'
  commit-graph: don't call write_graph_chunk_large_edges() unnecessarily
