Another difference seems to be that it applies only to --name-only, and not to other forms. I can see how "-p --relative-names" might be weird, because you'll get: diff --git a/../foo/bar b/../foo/bar or something. But surely things like --name-status would want to support it? > It would be great if --relative could be used for this (and it feels > weird that the option performs both actions at once, stripping _and_ > filtering where filtering could easily be done with pathspec). But > it's too late to change --relative behavior now. I suspect the ".." weirdness above is one of the reasons that --relative restricted itself to the current directory (but regardless, I agree that we cannot change it now). -Peff -- 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
