But so can you do

struct diff_options *diffopt;

without the declaration, no?  That is:

$ cat >x.c <<\EOF
struct foo {
struct bar *ptr;
};

int foo_is_null(struct foo *foo)
{
return foo == 0;
}
EOF
$ gcc -Wall -c x.c

Because you can't do:

struct diff_options;
struct diff_options diffopt;

The storage size is not known, but you can do:

struct diff_options;
struct diff_options *diffopt;

Was there a reason why commit.h is not included here, just like
revision.h would include diff.h, so that users of shortlog.h do not
have to worry about including commit.h themselves?

Note: not requesting the patch to be changed; just inquiring the
reasoning behind a different approach to solve related/same problem.
