Re: [PATCH] Re: Make 'git show' more useful

Hi,

The actual "--no-walk" flag was then added over a year later by Dsco, in

Doing a "git log -p -S--no-walk", I have to admit that I don't find a 
single actual _use_ of --no-walk.

Actually, I remember very precisely why I introduced it.  The difference 
between "git log --no-walk a b c" and "git show a b c" is that "git log" 
sorts the commits by commit time, which is pretty important in my case.

So I'd appreciate not doing away with that option.

Thanks,
