Can I make a “git gui” pass, say, “--patience” to “git diff”?

Question

I am really looking for a tuning method git guifor generating diff, as if git diff --patience, but I strongly suspect that any mechanism that could allow me to do this would also allow other parameters to be passed, and therefore I ask a more general question in the interests of better offspring maintenance:

Is there a way to set some git diffparameters that git guishould use when creating the differences that it shows?

Answer 1

, . (gui.diffcontext), git diff-index.

git-gui Tcl, . diff.tcl ^* lappend cmd --patience lappend cmd -p.

^{* _{/usr/share/git-gui/lib/diff.tcl, ...}}
