The width of the filename part can be controlled by
giving another width to it separated by a comma.
+--numstat::
+ Similar to \--stat, but shows number of added and
+ deleted lines in decimal notation and pathname without
+ abbreviation, to make it more machine friendly. For
+ binary files, outputs two `-` instead of saying
+ `0 0`.
+
+--shortstat::
+ Output only the last line of the --stat format containing total
+ number of modified files, as well as number of added and deleted
+ lines.
+
--summary::
Output a condensed summary of extended header information
such as creations, renames and mode changes.
Turn off rename detection, even when the configuration
file gives the default to do so.
+--check::
+ Warn if changes introduce trailing whitespace
+ or an indent that uses a space before a tab.
+
--full-index::
Instead of the first handful characters, show full
object name of pre- and post-image blob on the "index"
-a::
Shorthand for "--text".
+--ignore-space-at-eol::
+ Ignore changes in white spaces at EOL.
+
+--ignore-space-change::
+ Ignore changes in amount of white space. This ignores white
+ space at line end, and consider all other sequences of one or
+ more white space characters to be equivalent.
+
+-b::
+ Shorthand for "--ignore-space-change".
+
+--ignore-all-space::
+ Ignore white space when comparing lines. This ignores
+ difference even if one line has white space where the other
+ line has none.
+
+-w::
+ Shorthand for "--ignore-all-space".
+
+--exit-code::
+ Make the program exit with codes similar to diff(1).
+ That is, it exits with 1 if there were differences and
+ 0 means no differences.
+
+--quiet::
+ Disable all output of the program. Implies --exit-code.
