[PATCH] Diff updates to express type changes
With the introduction of type 'T' in the diff-raw output, and
the "apply-patch" program Linus has been quietly working on
without much advertisement, it started to make sense to emit
usable information in the "diff --git" patch output format as
well. Earlier built-in diff driver punted and did not say
anything about a symbolic link changing into a file or vice
versa, but this version represents it as a pair of deletion
and creation.
It also fixes a minor problem dealing with old archive created
with ancient git. The earlier code was reporting file mode
change between 100664 and 100644 (we shouldn't). The linux-2.6
git tree has a good example that exposes this problem. A good
test case is commit ce1dc02f76432a46db149241e015a4f782974623.
