* Use correct grammar in diffstat summary lineNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy2012-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "git diff --stat" and "git apply --stat" now learn to print the line "%d files changed, %d insertions(+), %d deletions(-)" in singular form whenever applicable. "0 insertions" and "0 deletions" are also omitted unless they are both zero. This matches how versions of "diffstat" that are not prehistoric produced their output, and also makes this line translatable.

* format-patch: Add a signature option (--signature)Stephen Boyd2010-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By default, git uses the version string as the signature for all patches output by format-patch. Many employers (mine included) require the use of a signature on all outgoing mails. In a format-patch | send-email workflow there isn't an easy way to modify the signature without breaking the pipe and manually replacing the version string with the signature required. Instead of doing all that work, add an option (--signature) and a config variable (format.signature) to replace the default git version signature when formatting patches. This does modify the original behavior of format-patch a bit. First off the version string is now placed in the cover letter by default. Secondly, once the configuration variable format.signature is added to the .config file there is no way to revert back to the default git version signature. Instead, specifying the --no-signature option will remove the signature from the patches entirely. Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <bebarino@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
* format-patch: wrap cover-letter's shortlog sensiblyJohannes Schindelin2008-03-02
| | | | | | | | | | | Earlier, overly-long onelines would not be wrapped at all, and indented with 6 spaces. Instead, we now wrap around at 72 characters, with a first-line indent of 2 spaces, and the rest with 4 spaces.

* Add a --cover-letter option to format-patchDaniel Barkalow2008-02-19
If --cover-letter is provided, generate a cover letter message before the patches, numbered 0. Original patch thanks to Johannes Schindelin Signed-off-by: Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@iabervon.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
