of the `--diff-filter` option on what the status letters mean.
|

|
||||
--submodule[=<format>]::
|
||||
Chose the output format for submodule differences. <format> can be one of
|
||||
'short' and 'log'. 'short' just shows pairs of commit names, this format
|
||||
is used when this option is not given. 'log' is the default value for this
|
||||
option and lists the commits in that commit range like the 'summary'
|
||||
option of linkgit:git-submodule[1] does.
|
||||
Specify how differences in submodules are shown. When `--submodule`
|
||||
or `--submodule=log` is given, the 'log' format is used. This format lists
|
||||
the commits in the range like linkgit:git-submodule[1] `summary` does.
|
||||
Omitting the `--submodule` option or specifying `--submodule=short`,
|
||||
uses the 'short' format. This format just shows the names of the commits
|
||||
at the beginning and end of the range.
|
||||
|
||||
--color::
|
||||
Show colored diff.
