I get 30 lines of output in my current repository, as I should.
If I then do this:
% LESS=-FRS git diff
What about:
LESS=-FRSX git diff
Well, I see output when there is output to show, yes, but it still
blanks the screen --- or, I should say, scrolls all the way to the
bottom --- when there is no difference to show.
I do note that if LESS is not set, git sets it (in pager.c) to just
what you have above (FRSX).
