Thanks for the explanation.  Plain 'git log' does not print any diffs.
Does that mean that the --raw flag is a no-op in that case?
Perhaps running 'git log --raw' should print a warning

    --raw given for raw-format diffs, but the output format you have chosen
    does not include diffs.  Did you mean 'git log --format=raw'?

You might even rename the option to --raw-diff-format, with the older one
still accepted for backwards compatibility.
