You're entirely correct, that that is what I was looking for in that particular case. However, the reason I raised it as a question was that I was poking around with git (which I'm enjoying immensely by the way - it really is as perfect an SCM as I have ever used) and in short succession did git-diff X^..X git-log X^..X git-format-patch X^..X I imagined that I would eventually stumble on other git commands where I would want to do this operation again. I'm sure I will have picked an incorrect command in each case, however, they all did exactly what I wanted so I stopped looking for the "right" command :-) Andy -- Dr Andrew Parkins, M Eng (Hons), AMIEE andyparkins@gmail.com - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
