I am considering the following to address irritation some people
(including me, actually) are experiencing with this change when
viewing a small (or no) diff. Any objections?

diff --git a/pager.c b/pager.c
index dcb398d..8bd33a1 100644
--- a/pager.c
+++ b/pager.c
@@ -50,7 +50,7 @@ void setup_pager(void)
close(fd[0]);
close(fd[1]);

- setenv("LESS", "-RS", 0);
+ setenv("LESS", "FRS", 0);
run_pager(pager);
die("unable to execute pager '%s'", pager);
exit(255);
