Subject: Make left-right automatic.
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.0-rc0~53^2~1
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5761231975ceffa531d86d9bab0f9a9a370674f6;p=git.git

Make left-right automatic.

When using symmetric differences, I think the user almost always
would want to know which side of the symmetry each commit came
from.  So this removes --left-right option from the command
line, and turns it on automatically when a symmetric difference
is used ("git log --merge" counts as a symmetric difference
between HEAD and MERGE_HEAD).

Just in case, a new option --no-left-right is provided to defeat
this, but I do not know if it would be useful.
