Subject: Make "diff-tree" take commit objects too, like "diff-cache" does.
X-Git-Tag: v0.99~804
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=abdb007d1f0ee1579c3719fc4fadbe4755163d74;p=git.git

Make "diff-tree" take commit objects too, like "diff-cache" does.

Sometimes it's just easier to not have to look up the "commit"->"tree"
translation by hand first. It's trivial to do inside diff-tree, and
it's just being polite.
