Subject: dgit: Pass --no-renames to git diff-tree -z, avoiding potential trouble
X-Git-Tag: archive/debian/3.12~18
X-Git-Url: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~ianmdlvl/git?p=dgit.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=a04897e74b24b59ed2a212d967f3698f08fec438;ds=sidebyside

dgit: Pass --no-renames to git diff-tree -z, avoiding potential trouble

Without this option, git-diff-tree might detect a rename (or possibly
even a copy).  If it does it prints a different output format with a
status of C or R *and a separate filename*.  The latter is an
additional nul-terminated record and would get dgit's interpreter of
the git diff-tree output out of step.
