That is not "internal implementation", but "logically separate parts". View it more like "'git show -s' does squelch the diff part but does not squelch the log output". After all, a single commit form of 'diff-tree' is a degenerate use case of feeding a single commit to 'diff-tree --stdin' from its standard input, which is a rough plumbing-level equivalent of 'show'. Documenting the behaviour correctly is the best thing you could do at this point, as this is one of the oldest part of the system that existing scripts would rely on. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
