Sounds great, I only hoped we can do it right now, with this new
--diff-merges option, maybe as a pre-requisite to the patches in
question, but Jeff said it's too late, dunno why.

A follow-up patch or two to remove the "--diff-merges" option and
add the "--diff-parents=(none|<number>|c|cc|all)" option on top of
the jk/log-fp-implies-m topic BEFORE it graduates to 'master' is a
possibility.

But is it worth the delay?  I dunno.

I don't think it's worth the delay, provided yet another new
--diff-parents is to be implemented rather that using --diff-merges for
that.

I was responding to your "it's too late, dunno why", as you seemed
not to want to waste an option "--diff-merges" that will become
unused when "--diff-parents" come and also wanted it to happen right
now.  If you no longer want to see it happen right now, that's OK by
me.
