But since I use "--find-copies-harder" quite a bit, and it is so long to type, and I am an inherently lazy person, I'd like the second "-C" to be a shortcut for "--find-copies-harder".

I like it. "git-diff -C -C ..." reads "git-diff, find copies. No really, find copies." ~~ Brian ``` ## Junio C Hamano, 2007-06-12 05:05 Subject: Re: [RFC] Teach diff to imply --find-copies-harder upon -C -C Message-ID: <7vodjln4oy.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.pobox.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/7vodjln4oy.fsf%40assigned-by-dhcp.pobox.com In-Reply-To: ``` Johannes Schindelin writes: > earlier, a second "-C" on the command line had no effect.
