Btw, with a recent git (ie 1.4.0+), you can just do git diff -M --stat origin..HEAD to do that much more efficiently, and without any external dependency on the "diffstat" program (with rename detection, you really need to do this using git itself, because "diffstat" doesn't understand rename patches being renames). In fact, in a script, add the "--summary" option too, which gives a summary of file creation/deletion/renames at the end. And as usual, the diff options work fine with "git log" too, so you can do git log -M --stat --summary and it will do the right thing. Look at your ae0dadcf.. commit, for example. Btw, the _one_ thing to be careful about is that when you generate a real patch with "-M", if that patch actually has a rename, then only "git apply" will be able to apply it correctly, and if somebody uses a regular "patch" program to apply it, they'll miss out on the rename, of course. Some day maybe the git "extended patch format" is so univerally recognized to be superior that everybody understands them, in the meantime you may not want to use "-M" to generate patches unless you know the other end applies them with git. (Which also explains why "-M" is not the default, of course). Linus All the advantages of Linux Managed Hosting--Without the Cost and Risk! Fully trained technicians.
