Junio C Hamano 15fad5f4d7 whatchanged: document -m option from git-diff-tree.
The documentation for git-whatchanged is meant to describe only
the most frequently used options from git-diff-tree.  Because "why
doesn't it show merges" was asked more than once, we'd better
describe '-m' option there.

git-whatchanged(1)
==================
v0.99.4, Aug 2005
NAME
----
git-whatchanged - Show logs with difference each commit introduces.
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git whatchanged' <option>...
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Shows commit logs and diff output each commit introduces. The
command internally invokes 'git-rev-list' piped to
'git-diff-tree', and takes command line options for both of
these commands.
This manual page describes only the most frequently used options.
OPTIONS
-------
-p::
Show textual diffs, instead of the git internal diff
output format that is useful only to tell the changed
paths and their nature of changes.
--max-count=<n>::
Limit output to <n> commits.
<since>..<until>::
Limit output to between the two named commits (bottom
exclusive, top inclusive).
-r::
Show git internal diff output, but for the whole tree,
not just the top level.
--pretty=<format>::
Controls the output format for the commit logs.
<format> can be one of 'raw', 'medium', 'short', 'full',
and 'oneline'.
-m::
By default, differences for merge commits are not shown.
With this flag, show differences to that commit from all
of its parents.
However, it is not very useful in general, although it
*is* useful on a file-by-file basis.
