Please go ahead. :)
The difficult piece is that the diff and revision handling options are
shared by a large number of commands.
I think my favorite idea is to provide macros to include the
appropriate entries in option tables[1]. Plus side: very easy for
callers to use. Downside: bloats the option tables, though I think
that can be worked around.
Junio seemed to suggest that adapting the current multi-pass procedure
might be easier[2].
That said, in the meantime, something like this series (just for -S
it would be a big improvement already) would make sense to me.
Thanks.
Jonathan
