From 5a9faa9eff00f316fc654c8e3bc85c3ba56ea659 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Vogt Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2018 10:38:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] support: git show --follow-symlinks HEAD:symlink Add support for the `--follow-symlinks` options to git-show. This allows to write: git show --follow-symlink HEAD:path-a-symlink to get the content of the symlinked file.
