From: Johannes Schindelin Date: Thu, 25 May 2006 21:55:11 +0000 (+0200) Subject: git-format-patch --start-number X-Git-Tag: v1.4.0-rc1~63 X-Git-Url: https://git.lorimer.id.au/gitweb.git/diff_plain/fa0f02dfa15d0d95f8b6d27688bbf8ac940e3354?hp=fa0f02dfa15d0d95f8b6d27688bbf8ac940e3354 git-format-patch --start-number Since the "a..b c..d" syntax is interpreted as "b ^a d ^c" as other range-ish commands, if you want to format a..b and then c..d and end up with files consecutively numbered, the second run needs to be able to tell the command what number to start from. This does not imply --numbered (which gives [PATCH n/m] to the subject). Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano ---
