So how did this end up in your mail?
Because it is not a format-patch output.
I often run "git diff --stat -p HEAD" from inside MUA in order
to get the patch from my work tree, write a proposed commit
message, and then reset the change away without committing after
sending that message (yes I do not need "git stash" --- gmane
and vger are my stashes, Mwhhhaaaa).
So maybe we can suppress the warning when the output is not a tty?
What's your point?
Well, git diff currently says "consider running git-status", and one
wanders why doesn't it just go ahead and run git status instead
of asking the user to do it.
