I personally prefer "ignore_merges" to be on by default, because quite
often the merge diff is distracting and not interesting. That's true both
with "-p" and with "--stat" output.
If you want output from merges, you can trivially use the "-m", "-c" or
"--cc" flags to tell that you're interested in merges, which also tells
the diff generator what kind of diff to do (for --stat, any of the three
will do, of course, but they differ for plain patches or for
--patch-with-stat).
This trivial patch just removes the two lines that tells "git log" not to
ignore merges. It will still show the commit log message, of course, due
to the "always_show_header" part.

This is a fairly straightforward patch to allow "get_sha1()" to also have
shorthands for tree and blob objects.
The syntax is very simple and intuitive: you can specify a tree or a blob
by simply specifying <revision>:<path>, and get_sha1() will do the SHA1
lookup from the tree for you.
You can currently do it with "git ls-tree <rev> <path>" and parsing the
output, but that's actually pretty awkward.
With this, you can do something like
git cat-file blob v1.2.4:Makefile
to get the contents of "Makefile" at revision v1.2.4.
Now, this isn't necessarily something you really need all that often, but
the concept itself is actually pretty powerful. We could, for example,
allow things like
git diff v0.99.6:git-commit-script..v1.3.0:git-commit.sh
to see the difference between two arbitrary files in two arbitrary
revisions. To do that, the only thing we'd have to do is to make
git-diff-tree accept two blobs to diff, in addition to the two trees it
now expects.

When I unified the revision argument parsing, I introduced a simple bug
wrt tags that had been marked uninteresting. When it was preparing for the
revision walk, it would mark all the parent commits of an uninteresting
tag correctly uninteresting, but it would forget about the commit itself.
This means that when I just did my 2.6.17-rc2 release, and my scripts
generated the log for "v2.6.17-rc1..v2.6.17-rc2", everything was fine,
except the commit pointed to by 2.6.17-rc1 (which shouldn't have been
there) was included. Even though it should obviously have been marked as
being uninteresting.
Not a huge deal, and the fix is trivial.

Asking for stat (either with --stat or --patch-with-stat) gives
you diffstat for the first parent, even under combine-diff.
While the combined patch is useful to highlight the complexity
and interaction of the parts touched by all branches when
reviewing a merge commit, diffstat is a tool to assess the
extent of damage the merge brings in, and showing stat with the
first parent is more sensible than clever per-parent diffstat.

This option is very special, since pretty_print_commit() will _remove_
the newline at the end of it, so we want to have an extra separator
between the things.
I added a honking big comment this time, so that (a) I don't forget this
_again_ (I broke "oneline" several times during this printout cleanup),
and so that people can understand _why_ the code does what it does.
Now, arguably the alternate fix is to always have the '\n' at the end in
pretty-print-commit, but git-rev-list depends on the current behaviour
(but we could have git-rev-list remove it, whatever).
With the big comment, the code hopefully doesn't get broken again. And now
things like
git log --pretty=oneline --cc --patch-with-stat
works (even if that is admittedly a totally insane combination: if you
want the patch, having the "oneline" log format is just crazy, but hey,
it _works_. Even insane people are people).

Here's a further patch on top of the previous one with cosmetic
improvements (no "real" code changes, just trivial updates):
- it gets the "---" before a diffstat right, including for the combined
merge case. Righ now the logic is that we always use "---" when we have
a diffstat, and an empty line otherwise. That's how I visually prefer
it, but hey, it can be tweaked later.
- I made "diff --cc/combined" add the "---/+++" header lines too. The
thing won't be mistaken for a valid diff, since the "@@" lines have too
many "@" characters (three or more), but it just makes it visually
match a real diff, which at least to me makes a big difference in
readability. Without them, it just looks very "wrong".
I guess I should have taken the filename from each individual entry
(and had one "---" file per parent), but I didn't even bother to try to
see how that works, so this was the simple thing.
With this, doing a
git log --cc --patch-with-stat
looks quite readable, I think. The only nagging issue - as far as I'm
concerned - is that diffstats for merges are pretty questionable the way
they are done now. I suspect it would be better to just have the _first_
diffstat, and always make the merge diffstat be the one for "result
against first parent".

Ok, this was nastier than expected, just because the dependencies between
the different log-printing stuff were absolutely _everywhere_, but here's
a patch that does exactly that.
The patch is not very easy to read, and the "--patch-with-stat" thing is
still broken (it does not call the "show_log()" thing properly for
merges). That's not a new bug. In the new world order it _should_ do
something like
if (rev->logopt)
show_log(rev, rev->logopt, "---\n");
but it doesn't. I haven't looked at the --with-stat logic, so I left it
alone.
That said, this patch removes more lines than it adds, and in particular,
the "cmd_log_wc()" loop is now a very clean:
while ((commit = get_revision(rev)) != NULL) {
log_tree_commit(rev, commit);
free(commit->buffer);
commit->buffer = NULL;
}
so it doesn't get much prettier than this. All the complexity is entirely
hidden in log-tree.c, and any code that needs to flush the log literally
just needs to do the "if (rev->logopt) show_log(...)" incantation.
I had to make the combined_diff() logic take a "struct rev_info" instead
of just a "struct diff_options", but that part is pretty clean.
This does change "git whatchanged" from using "diff-tree" as the commit
descriptor to "commit", and I changed one of the tests to reflect that new
reality. Otherwise everything still passes, and my other tests look fine
too.

This bug was reported by Yann Dirson, and results in an 'Error:

isn't outputting all the boundary commits when it is asked for commits
affecting only certain files. We already cope with that by adding the
missing boundary commits in addextraid, but there we weren't adding a
0 to the end of the commitlisted list when we added the extra id to
the end of the displayorder list.
This fixes it by appending 0 to commitlisted in addextraid, thus keeping
commitlisted and displayorder in sync.

This uses the "--no-walk" flag that I never actually implemented (but I'm

"git whatchanged --no-walk".
It just refuses to add more interesting parents to the revision walking
history, so you don't actually get any history, you just get the commit
you asked for.
I was going to add "--no-walk" as a real argument flag to git-rev-list
too, but I'm not sure anybody actually needs it. Although it might be
useful for porcelain, so I left the door open.

The "--help" argument is special, in that it is (along with "--version")
in that is taken by the "git" program itself rather than the sub-command,
and thus we've had the syntax "git --help cmd".
However, as anybody who has ever used CVS or some similar devil-spawn
program, it's confusing as h*ll when options before the sub-command act
differently from options after the sub-command, so this quick hack just
makes it acceptable to do "git cmd --help" instead, and get the exact same
result.
It may be hacky, but it's simple and does the trick.
Of course, this does not help if you use one of the non-builtin commands
without using the "git" helper. Ie you won't be getting a man-page just
because you do "git-rev-list --help". Don't expect us to be quite _that_
helpful.
