The former is probably a good change for consistency. As the latter
change breaks a workflow around quickly checking the output from
"git grep funcname \*.h", I am not sure if it is a good idea.
Especially things like this look like a usability regression:
-void handle_ignore_submodules_arg(struct diff_options *diffopt, const char *);
+extern void handle_ignore_submodules_arg(struct diff_options *diffopt,
+ const char *);
Perhaps the name "diffopt" can be dropped from there if we want it
to be shorter. Names in prototypes are valuable for parameters of
more generic types like "char *", especially when there are more
than one parameters of the same type, but in this case the typename
is specific enough for readers to tell what it is.
