Both styles is true, but straight flaps were the predominant style????

Predominant as more lasted the war (being a later model perhaps ?) and were not returned for a replacement (ie later tunics still unissued can be found in collections). Predominance of an item of German kit of course depends what you are portraying, when you would have been issued it (new recci would have had the newer issued/model compared to a person enlisted a year before the new issue was erm issued),and the time frame you are using for your portrayal. Think say heer wise (same with other TR forces though), a chap enlisted in late 1944, would he have been issued an M36 ? unlikely considering there had been a few tunics in between and it had been outdated/outmoded, but that also doesn't mean he'd have been issued an M44 
more likely a later something inbetweenie M40-M43 . And to go down the route of photographic evidence, when were the pictures taken, what theatre was it in, what was the age of the soldier in the pic (back to what he'd have been issued - and if he'd been issued the spanking new tunic) context means a lot and predominance has to be put into the context of the situation you are using as an example.
hello, why have those luft four pocket tunics got scalloped pocket flaps?
nearly all tunics I have seen have straight pocket flaps.

Why has that luftwaffe four pocket tunic got scalloped pocket flaps? nearly all those tunics had straight pocket flaps, as in this photo.
I have only ever seen two photos of tunics with the scaloped flaps.

Having done a little more research - scallops for pocket flaps is linked with the 'M40' and previous LW Tunics, the straight 'flaps' is anything after.
