I cannot tell if you are asking about cg-diff or changing the
built-in diff-* output.  The Subject: line suggests you are
talking about the latter, but if that is the case I have to
admit that I am not that sympathetic to Index: nor separator.

Like Linus, I do "/^diff --git .*" in my less sessions, which
gives a very nice highlighted separator line without wasting a
single line on the terminal.  If any of the readers on the list
didn't know about this trick (especially the trailing .* part),
please try it.  I'm certain everybody would love it.
