A few questions:

 * Do you still use git-diffall?  Since it hasn't been a maintenance
   burden, I wouldn't mind keeping it if it still has users.

 * Any thoughts about how to help people who have been using it to
   migrate to difftool?  Would a note in the release notes to look
   into the --dir-diff option to difftool be enough, or are there
   more specific pointers that could be useful?

Once those questions are dealt with, this seems like a nice small
cleanup.  Thanks for the quick feedback.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
