diff.relative
What
The two helpers that count changed lines and files now also force diff.relative=false. If you set diff.relative in your git config or work from a subdirectory, those counts were previously scoped to that directory; they are now consistent across the whole repository.
Details
- Applies to both the summary and per-file counting helpers, with no gate.
Evidence
diff.relative=false
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
