Thanks for your interest in improving Git.
We do code reviews always in the open and I do not respond to pull-requests on Github. Could you redirect this to git@vger.kernel.org like everybody else does, following Documentation/Sub mittingPatches?

The command line convention for all commands is to have dashed option before all the other options, so the right place to put the optional -p would be before the optional , even though the command may happen to accept a malformed command line.

Also it might make more sense not to single out -p; I think you can give any reasonable option that is acceptable to the diff family of commands, e.g. "--stat", "--name-status", "--summary", ...
