Yeah, we often see in other people's tools that the -X option means opposite of the -x option, and even though "git --paginate" may not have short-and-sweet "git -p" short-hand (or does it?) it would be natural to expect "-p" to mean that, and I do not find it a stretch for "-P" to mean opposite of it by extension. ... goes and looks ... Ah, "-p" does mean "--paginate", it seems. So I am not opposed to resurrecting the patch with s/N/P/, if that is what people want. On the other hand, I am perfectly OK if the patch stays retracted.
