I have been looking for a git config option to turn on --function-context, and after searching on the Internet and reading the man pages, #git confirmed that it doesn't exist.

I am wondering if it would be sensible to introduce such a variable? Or a variable to specify any additional flags to diff?

Thanks, Debarshi
