Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] format-patch: add an option to suppress commit hash
Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2015 01:52:04 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1450144325-182108-3-git-send-email-sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1450144325-182108-1-git-send-email-sandals@crustytoothpaste.net>
Oftentimes, patches created by git format-patch will be stored in
version control or compared with diff. In these cases, two otherwise
identical patches can have different commit hashes, leading to diff
noise. Teach git format-patch a --zero-commit option that instead
produces an all-zero hash to avoid this diff noise.
