diff.noprefix::
If set, 'git diff' does not show any source or destination prefix.
+diff.relative::
+ If set to 'true', 'git diff' does not show changes outside of the directory
+ and show pathnames relative to the current directory.
+
diff.orderFile::
File indicating how to order files within a diff.
See the '-O' option to linkgit:git-diff[1] for details.
-R::
Swap two inputs; that is, show differences from index or
on-disk file to tree contents.
+endif::git-format-patch[]
--relative[=<path>]::
+--no-relative::
When run from a subdirectory of the project, it can be
told to exclude changes outside the directory and show
pathnames relative to it with this option. When you are
not in a subdirectory (e.g. in a bare repository), you
can name which subdirectory to make the output relative
to by giving a <path> as an argument.
-endif::git-format-patch[]
+ `--no-relative` can be used to countermand both `diff.relative` config
+ option and previous `--relative`.
