Hi!
When using the command
  git log --patch --name-status

It seems the name-status flag somehow overrides the patch flag, by which I mean that I get the same output as simply running

  git log --name-status

It would be nice for the combination of these two flags to work, as it would allow one to view both a summary of changed files as well as the changes themselves, at the same time.

Happy holidays, Érico
