From 07cd7265274ba6aed2589e6b22eae7d413640037 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff King Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2010 10:49:47 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] diff: report bogus input to -C/-M/-B We already detect invalid input to these functions, but we simply exit with an error code, never saying anything as simple as "your input was wrong". Let's fix that. Before: $ git diff -CM $ echo $? 128 After: $ git diff -CM error: invalid argument to -C: M $ echo $? 128 There should be no problems with having diff_opt_parse print to stderr, as there is already precedent in complaining about bogus --color and --output arguments.
