Hi,
It seems the command "git log --no-textconv -Sfoo" still runs the
textconv filter (noticed because I have a broken textconv filter that
lets "git log -S" error out).
Steps to reproduce:
Create a repo with *.txt file(s) in it
$ echo '*.txt diff=wrong' > .gitattributes
An incorrect textconv filter errors out as expected:
$ git -c diff.wrong.textconv='xxx' log -Sfoo
error: cannot run xxx: No such file or directory
fatal: unable to read files to diff
but --no-textconv has no effect:
$ git -c diff.wrong.textconv='xxx' log --no-textconv -Sfoo
error: cannot run xxx: No such file or directory
fatal: unable to read files to diff
