    Add diff-option --ext-diff · 72909bef
    Johannes Schindelin 提交于
    To prevent funky games with external diff engines, git-log and
    friends prevent external diff engines from being called. That makes
    sense in the context of git-format-patch or git-rebase.
    
    However, for "git log -p" it is not so nice to get the message
    that binary files cannot be compared, while "git diff" has no
    problems with them, if you provided an external diff driver.
    
    With this patch, "git log --ext-diff -p" will do what you expect,
    and the option "--no-ext-diff" can be used to override that
    setting.
