  Subject: [PATCH RFC GSoC] gitweb: Use @diff_opts while using format-patch

  Make git-format-patch (used by 'patch' and 'patches' views) use the
  same rename detection options that git-diff and git-diff-tree (used
  by 'commitdiff', 'blobdiff', etc.) use.


Note that I am not sure if it is really a good change, as it might
create patches that (currently) can be applied only with git.

Excellent idea.

I think we can live with that. If we get strong complains about this,
we can always introduce support for extra options to cancel the rename
detection. (Also, the upcoming GNU patch release seems to support the
git diff format, including copies and renames.)

I think git-specific format is no big issue; even if you are applying
the patch with plain patch(1) instead, you might very well prefer to be
informed of the rename and take appropriate precautions (like mv'ing
before applying to avoid unsolvable rejects).

But please do something about the whitespace damage in the patches you
send, thanks!
