Removing 5 lines from diff.c does the job, except for the " +" after 0,
but I don't know if that output is really better. Is the
addition/removal of an empty file a file change? It's certainly a change
of the containing dir, which git does not track. I don't see how to
distinguish addition from removal of an empty file at that point in the
code yet. This might be the "fun" part...
