[PATCH 0/6] diff-merges: let -m imply -p

[Sergey Organov <sorganov@gmail.com>]

Fix long standing inconsistency between -c/--cc that do imply -p, on
one side, and -m that did not imply -p, on the other side.

After these patches

  git log -m

will start to produce diffs without need to provide -p as well, that
improves both consistency and usability. It gets even more useful if
one sets "log.diffMerges" configuration variable to "first-parent" to
force -m produce usual diff with respect to first parent only.

Previous semantics of -m could still be accessed using
--diff-merges=separate option.

First 5 patches in the series are refactoring that is not expected to
change existing behavior, and the last one is the actual functional
change.

Sergey Organov (6):
  t4013: add test for "git diff-index -m"
  diff-merges: move specific diff-index "-m" handling to diff-index
  git-svn: stop passing "-m" to "git rev-list"
  stash list: stop passing "-m" to "git list"
  diff-merges: rename "combined_imply_patch" to "merges_imply_patch"
  diff-merges: let -m imply -p
