In diff.c, the argument to tabsize is classified as "optional_argument" whe= reas it should be "required_argument".=20 We either should; - update the man page and indicate the argument following --tabsize is opti= onal - make the argument to --tabsize required.=20 I am more keen to go with the second option (i.e. making the argument manda= tory for the --tabsize). It does not make much sense to use only --tabsize --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
