Not implemented Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal object name in diff-raw format output and diff-tree header lines, show only a partial prefix. This is independent of the `--full-index` option above, which controls the diff-patch output format. Non default number of digits can be specified with `--abbrev=`.

Not implemented Instead of showing the full 40-byte hexadecimal commit object name, show only a partial prefix. Non default number of digits can be specified with "--abbrev=" (which also modifies diff output, if it is displayed). + This should make "--pretty=oneline" a whole lot more readable for people using 80-column terminals.

Not implemented Show the commit itself and the commit log message even if the diff itself is empty.

Not implemented Break complete rewrite changes into pairs of delete and create.

Not implemented In addition to `--full-index`, output a binary diff that can be applied with `git-apply`.

Not implemented This flag changes the way a merge commit is displayed (which means it is useful only when the command is given one , or '--stdin'). It shows the differences from each of the parents to the merge result simultaneously instead of showing pairwise diff between a parent and the result one at a time (which is what the '-m' option does). Furthermore, it lists only files which were modified from all parents.

Not implemented Detect copies as well as renames. See also `--find-copies-harder`.

Not implemented This flag changes the way a merge commit patch is displayed, in a similar way to the '-c' option. It implies the '-c' and '-p' options and further compresses the patch output by omitting uninteresting hunks whose the contents in the parents have only two variants and the merge result picks one of them without modification. When all hunks are uninteresting, the commit itself and the commit log message is not shown, just like in any other "empty diff" case.

Not implemented ifndef::git-format-patch[] Warn if changes introduce trailing whitespace or an indent that uses a space before a tab. Exits with non-zero status if problems are found. Not compatible with --exit-code. endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented Show colored diff.

Not implemented Show colored word diff, i.e., color words which have changed. By default, words are separated by whitespace. + When a is specified, every non-overlapping match of the considered whitespace and ignored(!) for the purposes of finding differences. You may want to append `|[^[:space:]]` to your regular expression to make sure that it matches all non-whitespace characters. A match that contains a newline is silently truncated(!) at the newline. + The regex can also be set via a diff driver or configuration option, see linkgit:gitattributes[1] or linkgit:git-config[1]. Giving it explicitly overrides any diff driver or configuration setting. Diff drivers override configuration settings. endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented ifndef::git-format-patch[] Select only files that are Added (`A`), Copied (`C`), Deleted (`D`), Modified (`M`), Renamed (`R`), have their type (i.e. regular file, symlink, submodule, ...) 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. endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented Output the distribution of relative amount of changes (number of lines added or removed) for each sub-directory. Directories with changes below a cut-off percent (3% by default) are not shown. The cut-off percent can be set with `--dirstat=limit`. Changes in a child directory is not counted for the parent directory, unless `--cumulative` is used.

Not implemented Same as `--dirstat`, but counts changed files instead of lines.

Not implemented Show the given destination prefix instead of "b/".

Not implemented The commit objects record the encoding used for the log message in their encoding header; this option can be used to tell the command to re-code the commit log message in the encoding preferred by the user. For non plumbing commands this defaults to UTF-8.

Not implemented ifndef::git-format-patch[] Make the program exit with codes similar to diff(1). That is, it exits with 1 if there were differences and 0 means no differences.

Not implemented Allow an external diff helper to be executed. If you set an external diff driver with linkgit:gitattributes[5], you need to use this option with linkgit:git-log[1] and friends.

Not implemented 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. Giving more than one `-C` option has the same effect.

Not implemented For more detailed explanation on these common options, see also linkgit:gitdiffcore[7].

Not implemented Instead of the first handful of characters, show the full pre- and post-image blob object names on the "index" line when generating patch format output.

Not implemented Ignore whitespace when comparing lines. This ignores differences even if one line has whitespace where the other line has none.

Not implemented Ignore changes in whitespace at EOL.

Not implemented Ignore changes in amount of whitespace. This ignores whitespace at line end, and considers all other sequences of one or more whitespace characters to be equivalent.

Not implemented Ignore changes to submodules in the diff generation.

Not implemented Show the context between diff hunks, up to the specified number of lines, thereby fusing hunks that are close to each other.

Not implemented The `-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.

Not implemented By default, 'git-diff-tree --stdin' does not show differences for merge commits. With this flag, it shows differences to that commit from all of its parents. See also '-c'.

Not implemented Detect renames.

Not implemented Show only names of changed files.

Not implemented Show only names and status of changed files. See the description of the `--diff-filter` option on what the status letters mean.

Not implemented Turn off colored diff, even when the configuration file gives the default to color output.

Not implemented 'git-diff-tree' outputs a line with the commit ID when applicable. This flag suppressed the commit ID output.

Not implemented Disallow external diff drivers.

Not implemented Do not show any source or destination prefix.

Not implemented Turn off rename detection, even when the configuration file gives the default to do so.

Not implemented ifdef::git-format-patch[] Generate plain patches without any diffstats. endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented Similar to `\--stat`, but shows number of added and deleted lines in decimal notation and pathname without abbreviation, to make it more machine friendly. For binary files, outputs two `-` instead of saying `0 0`.

Not implemented Output the patch in the order specified in the , which has one shell glob pattern per line.

Not implemented This is a shorthand for "--pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit" used together.

Not implemented ifndef::git-format-patch[] Generate patch (see section on generating patches). {git-diff? This is the default.} endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented ifndef::git-format-patch[] Synonym for `-p --raw`. endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented ifndef::git-format-patch[] Synonym for `-p --stat`. endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented Generate a diff using the "patience diff" algorithm.

Not implemented When `-S` finds a change, show all the changes in that changeset, not just the files that contain the change in .

Not implemented Make the not a plain string but an extended POSIX regex to match.

Not implemented For more detailed explanation on these common options, see also linkgit:gitdiffcore[7].

Not implemented Disable all output of the program. Implies `--exit-code`. endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented recurse into sub-trees

Not implemented ifndef::git-format-patch[] Swap two inputs; that is, show differences from index or on-disk file to tree contents.

Not implemented ifndef::git-format-patch[] Generate the raw format. {git-diff-core? This is the default.} endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented When run from a subdirectory of the project, it can be told to exclude changes outside the directory and show pathnames relative to it with this option. When you are not in a subdirectory (e.g. in a bare repository), you can name which subdirectory to make the output relative to by giving a as an argument. endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented When '--root' is specified the initial commit will be shown as a big creation event. This is equivalent to a diff against the NULL tree.

Not implemented By default, 'git-diff-tree --stdin' shows differences, either in machine-readable form (without '-p') or in patch form (with '-p'). This output can be suppressed. It is only useful with '-v' flag.

Not implemented ifndef::git-format-patch[] Look for differences that introduce or remove an instance of . Note that this is different than the string simply appearing in diff output; see the 'pickaxe' entry in linkgit:gitdiffcore[7] for more details.

Not implemented Output only the last line of the `--stat` format containing total number of modified files, as well as number of added and deleted lines.

Not implemented Show the given source prefix instead of "a/".

Not implemented Generate a diffstat. You can override the default output width for 80-column terminal by `--stat=width`. The width of the filename part can be controlled by giving another width to it separated by a comma.

Not implemented When '--stdin' is specified, the command does not take arguments from the command line. Instead, it reads lines containing either two , one , or a list of from its standard input. (Use a single space as separator.) + When two trees are given, it compares the first tree with the second. When a single commit is given, it compares the commit with its parents. The remaining commits, when given, are used as if they are parents of the first commit. + When comparing two trees, the ID of both trees (separated by a space and terminated by a newline) is printed before the difference. When comparing commits, the ID of the first (or only) commit, followed by a newline, is printed. + The following flags further affect the behavior when comparing commits (but not trees).

Not implemented Chose the output format for submodule differences. can be one of 'short' and 'log'. 'short' just shows pairs of commit names, this format is used when this option is not given. 'log' is the default value for this option and lists the commits in that commit range like the 'summary' option of linkgit:git-submodule[1] does.

Not implemented Output a condensed summary of extended header information such as creations, renames and mode changes.

Not implemented show tree entry itself as well as subtrees. Implies -r.

Not implemented Treat all files as text.

Not implemented ifndef::git-format-patch[] Generate patch (see section on generating patches). {git-diff? This is the default.} endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented Generate diffs with lines of context instead of the usual three. ifndef::git-format-patch[] Implies `-p`. endif::git-format-patch[]

Not implemented This flag causes 'git-diff-tree --stdin' to also show the commit message before the differences.

Not implemented ifdef::git-log[] Separate the commits with NULs instead of with new newlines. + Also, when `--raw` or `--numstat` has been given, do not munge pathnames and use NULs as output field terminators. endif::git-log[] ifndef::git-log[] When `--raw` or `--numstat` has been given, do not munge pathnames and use NULs as output field terminators. endif::git-log[] + Without this option, each pathname output will have TAB, LF, double quotes, and backslash characters replaced with `\t`, `\n`, `\"`, and `\\`, respectively, and the pathname will be enclosed in double quotes if any of those replacements occurred.
