Subject: [PATCH v2 11/13] Add option --first-parent
Message-ID: <1208132469-26471-11-git-send-email-joerg@alea.gnuu.de>
In-Reply-To: <1208132469-26471-10-git-send-email-joerg@alea.gnuu.de>

With this new option it's possible to narrow the list of commits in the
TODO list to only those commits you get following the first parent of
each merge, i.e. not those from the merged branches.

 	Instead of ignoring merges, try to recreate them.  This option
 	only works in interactive mode.
 
+-f, \--first-parent::
+	This option implies the option --preserve-merges, but instead of
