It seems to me that --all-files makes it more clear that all files,
even ones not listed on the command line, will be included in the
output.

The --all-changes option sounds less specific and could easily refer
to "all changes to these files", so I think that --all-files declares
the intent more directly.

I'm very much looking forward to recursive log!  This has always seemed
like a basic feature that log should support.
