I currently don't see any way to either tell b4 to use this option, or to tell git to (temporarily) use this option when generating any diff. For now I'm hacking up b4 in git_range_to_patches to add "-B" to the git show command there, but I think it would make sense that adding custom options for a single series was supported with some b4 prep command.
