doc/git-log: drop "-r" diff option

peff · gitster · commit 6cea104b2c02 · 2020-07-29T13:44:03.000-07:00
This has been the default since 170c043 (Porcelain level "log" family should recurse when diffing., 2007-08-27). There's not even a way to turn it off, so you'd never even want "-r" to override that. It's not the default for plumbing like diff-tree, of course, but the option is documented separately there. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
