I'm surprised it isn't already! I think it should.

As an aside, I wanted to know whether we should add 'test_expect_failure's for commands of the following sort,

    git log -p --full-diff master --stat
     
    git commit -v Makefile --amend

just to keep us reminded that these are accepted not by design but by accident ?
