It is too late to change the name of the option, but we could add a synonym if it makes easier to understand what the option is for. It is about saying "my pathspec are only to limit the commits to be shown and do not limit the diff output". In that sense, the current name that asks to give me the diff output fully is not that wrong, but I wouldn't be surprised if other people can come up with better names.
