 DESCRIPTION
 -----------
 Compares the content and mode of the blobs found via two tree objects.
 
+If there is only one <tree-ish> given, the commit is compared with its parents
+(see --stdin below).

 Note that "git-diff-tree" can use the tree encapsulated in a commit object.

--p::

-
--B::
-	Break complete rewrite changes into pairs of delete and create.
-
--M::
-	Detect renames.

--C::
-	Detect copies as well as renames.
-
---find-copies-harder::
-	By default, -C option finds copies only if the original
-	file of the copy was modified in the same changeset for
-	performance reasons.  This flag makes the command

--R::
-	Swap two input trees.
-
--S<string>::
-	Look for differences that contains the change in <string>.

---pickaxe-all::
-	When -S finds a change, show all the changes in that
-	changeset, not just the files that contains the change

+-c::
