    [PATCH] diff: Fix docs and add -O to diff-helper. · ce240675
    Junio C Hamano 提交于
    This patch updates diff documentation and usage strings:
    
     - clarify the semantics of -R.  It is not "output in reverse";
       rather, it is "I will feed diff backwards".  Semantically
       they are different when -C is involved.
    
     - describe -O in usage strings of diff-* brothers.  It was
       implemented, documented but not described in usage text.
    
    Also it adds -O to diff-helper.  Like -S (and unlike -M/-C/-B),
    this option can work on sanitized diff-raw output produced by
    the diff-* brothers.  While we are at it, the call it makes to
    diffcore is cleaned up to use the diffcore_std() like everybody
    else, and the declaration for the low level diffcore routines
    are moved from diff.h (public) to diffcore.h (private between
    diff.c and diffcore backends).
