Here is version 2 of my patch series to improve the consistency between the documentation and implementation of format-patch. It is implemented on top of Peff's recent commit to reinstate -p.

Björn Gustavsson (4):
  format-patch: Always generate a patch
  format-patch documentation: Remove diff options that are not useful
  format-patch documentation: Fix formatting
  format-patch: Add "--no-stat" as a synonym for "-p"
