Remove unnecessary '-S' option that enabled less to chop long lines.
It used to provide some confusion at least for the 'git diff':
"Where are my long lines? Are they missed from the patch?".
It is not "unnecessary", but only "what _you_ are not used to".
As this breaks expectentions of people already familiar with
what git does by default, I cannot take this patch.
