[PATCH] diff: alias -q to --quiet

From: Anthony Sottile <hidden>
Date: 2017-10-13 16:56:46
Subsystem: documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

Previously, `-q` was silently ignored:

Before:

$ git diff -q -- Documentation/; echo $?
diff --git a/Documentation/diff-options.txt b/Documentation/diff-options.txt
index a88c767..aa6e724 100644
--- a/Documentation/diff-options.txt
+++ b/Documentation/diff-options.txt
@@ -587,6 +587,7 @@ ifndef::git-log[]
        That is, it exits with 1 if there were differences and
        0 means no differences.

+-q::
 --quiet::
        Disable all output of the program. Implies `--exit-code`.
 endif::git-log[]
0
$

After:
$ ./git diff -q -- Documentation/; echo $?
1
$
