Hmm. I still don't like it. It sets a precedent, and we simply do not do it that way in other circumstances (most obvious would be the -X merge options). The more divergent user interfaces for the same sort of thing are, the more brain cycles you force users to spend on navigating said interfaces. > > I only had time to skim the patch, and I have to wonder why you pass > > around full-blown `rev_info` structs for range diff (and with that really > > awful name `rd_rev`) rather than just the `diff_options` that you > > *actually* care about? > > Because setup_revisions() which does all the command-line parsing needs > a rev_info, so even if we only need the diffopt in the end we need to > initiate the whole thing. > > Suggestions for a better varibale name most welcome. `range_diff_revs` And you do not need to pass around the whole thing. You can easily pass `&range_diff_revs.diffopt`. Don't pass around what you do not need to pass around.
