If options pertaining to how the diff is displayed is provided to `git stash show`, the command will ignore the stash.showIncludeUntracked configuration variable, defaulting to not showing any untracked files. This is unintuitive behaviour since the format of the diff output and whether or not to display untracked files are orthogonal. Use stash.showIncludeUntracked even when diff options are given. Of course, this is still overridable via the command-line options. Update the documentation to explicitly say which configuration variables will be overridden when a diff options are given. Signed-off-by: Denton Liu <redacted> --- This patch is a follow-up to [0]. This patch is based on top of 'dl/stash-show-untracked-fixup'.
It does make sense to keep "what to show" and "how to show them" orthogonal. It seems that not enough thoguht went into the topic before it got merged to 'next', which is quite sad.
