Here is the list of undocumented long options I have found in git: * --abbrev-commit (in revision.c) - I'm not sure _where_ it should be added, as it afects most visible I think git-log, git-show, git-rev-list. Implies --abbrev. * --exclude-existing of git-show-ref; new option * --reflog of git-show-branch, similar to --no-name and --ahs1-name options I think; new option * --timestamp option of git-rev-list. Bit strange, but perhaps useful. I don't quite know what it does. * --full-history option of git-rev-list (--full-diff just got documented). I think it would be nice to have described while at it git history simplification, and how options like --full-history, path limiter, --parents interacts with it. * --trivial option of git-read-tree. It looks like opposite of (documented) --aggresive option, but source indicates that it might be not exactly opposite. * --thin and --no-thin of send-pack. It is plumbing option, but even plumbing should be documented. Not sure which commands are affected by this.
