I was surprised to not see you use `--diff-filter` here, but I think
that that makes sense. You only would want to exclude deletions, since
that would be the only time the post-image is /dev/null AFAICT.

But I guess that would make it impossible to do "git jump diff
--diff-filter", which may be useful in some cases. TBH, I have almost
never used --diff-filter myself, so I'm not sure how common that is.

In any event, this seems to be quite a reasonable implementation to me.

Thanks,
Taylor
