DESCRIPTION

@@ -80,6 +81,20 @@ separated with a single space are given.
git-diff-tree outputs a line with the commit ID when
applicable. This flag suppressed the commit ID output.
+-c,--cc::
+ These flags change the way a merge commit is displayed
+ (which means it is useful only when the command is given
+ one <tree-ish>, or '--stdin'). It shows the differences
+ from each of the parents to the merge result
+ simultaneously, instead of showing pairwise diff between
+ a parent and the result one at a time, which '-m' option
+ output does. '--cc' further compresses the output by
+ omiting hunks that show differences from only one
+ parent, or show the same change from all but one parent
+ for an Octopus merge. When this optimization makes all
+ hunks disappear, the commit itself and the commit log
+ message is not shown, unless '-m' is specified.
