I would be happy with either, though I think that my preference is to
retain '--column-number', as introduced in v2. I think that given the
choice between (1) staying closer to our conventions (i.e.,
'--line-number' instead of '--line') and (2) staying closer to other
tools', I'd choose (1).
That said, I'll happily pick up whichever the majority prefers, so if
that's --column and not --column-number, that works OK for me. I believe
that the ultimate say should be up to Junio.

Sure, thanks for pointing me in the right direction :-).
Thanks,
