        simultaneously instead of showing pairwise diff between a parent
        and the result one at a time. Furthermore, it lists only files

+       This flag makes the merge commits show the full diff like
+       regular commits; for each merge parent, a separate log entry
+       and diff is generated. An exception is that only diff against
+       the first parent is shown when '--first-parent' option is given;
+       in that case, the output represents the changes the merge
+       brought _into_ the then-current branch.
