Re: [PATCH v5 6/7] diff: diff_aligned_abbrev: remove ellipsis after abbreviated SHA-1 value

From: Ann T Ropea <hidden>

Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Neither Git nor the user are in need of this (visual) aid anymore, but
we must offer a transition period.

A follow-up patch (series) will rectify the situation by covering the
new output format as well as the backward compatible one.

Also, fix a typo: "abbbreviated" ---> "abbreviated".

Signed-off-by: Ann T Ropea <redacted>

v2: rename patch series & focus on removal of ellipses
v3: env var instead of config option, use one-line comments where appropriate, preserve indent level
v4: improve env var handling (rename, helper func to query, docu)
v5: rewrite series to take Junio's comments in [ref] aboard
