Revision 2d266f9d623625e0a28fbe3c3615707500e9448f authored by Thomas Rast on 26 March 2009, 17:29:25 UTC, committed by Junio C Hamano on 27 March 2009, 07:38:01 UTC
Users were confused about the meaning and use of the --root option.
Notably, since 68c2ec7 (format-patch: show patch text for the root
commit, 2009-01-10), --root has nothing to do with showing the patch
text for the root commit any more.

Shorten and clarify the corresponding paragraph in the DESCRIPTION
section, document --root under OPTIONS, and add an explicit note that
root commits are formatted regardless.
