Re: [PATCH] Make 'diff C^!' show the same diff as 'show C'

If that is indeed the case and if it is a common thing to ask, isn't it
more productive to teach "show" a way to do so in a simpler way than
doing, say,

	$ git show --pretty=format: HEAD

That still doesn't get rid of the stray newline.

And the reason you don't want that newline, especially when you know there
always is one so if you really wanted to you could easily sed it out,
is...?
