Subject: [PATCH v5 1/1] range-diff: treat notes like `log`
Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2023 22:26:50 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <6e114271a2e7d2323193bd58bb307f60101942ce.1695154855.git.code@khaugsbakk.name> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1695154855.git.code@khaugsbakk.name>

Currently, `range-diff` shows the default notes if no notes-related
arguments are given. This is also how `log` behaves. But unlike
`range-diff`, `log` does *not* show the default notes if
`--notes=<custom>` are given. In other words, this:

    git log --notes=custom

is equivalent to this:

    git log --no-notes --notes=custom

While:

    git range-diff --notes=custom

acts like this:

    git log --notes --notes-custom

This can’t be how the user expects `range-diff` to behave given that the
man page for `range-diff` under `--[no-]notes[=<ref>]` says:

> This flag is passed to the `git log` program (see git-log(1)) that
> generates the patches.

This behavior also affects `format-patch` since it uses `range-diff` for
the cover letter. Unlike `log`, though, `format-patch` is not supposed
to show the default notes if no notes-related arguments are given.[1]
But this promise is broken when the range-diff happens to have something
to say about the changes to the default notes, since that will be shown
in the cover letter.

Remedy this by introducing `--show-notes-by-default` that `range-diff` can
use to tell the `log` subprocess what to do.

    showing notes, 2010-01-20).
