Re: [PATCH] diff-format.txt: Combined diff format documentation supplement

By the way, this is only minimally tested, but this patch fills
the blanks in your documentation.

The combine_diff_path structure _does_ keep track of the
original path in each parent, so renames _could_ be shown (we do
not keep the score, though), but the question is how.  "rename to"
would obviously be "the path in the merge result", but "rename from"
needs to be shown for all parents when we have rename from any
of the parents.  "rename from" line as in the usual one parent diff
does not have any place to say "which parent" (because there is
no need), so showing the usual "rename from" for only parents
that the result has rename from makes the output useless -- we
cannot tell "from which parent" from such an output.  I feel
that an evil merge is rare enough that worrying about showing
rename line is probably not worth the effort.

[PATCH] combine-diff: a few more finishing touches.

"new file" and "deleted file" were already reported in the
original code, but the logic was not as transparent as it could
have.  This uses a few variables and more comments to clarify
the flow.  The rule is: (1) if a path exists in the merge result
when no parent had it, we report "new" (otherwise it came from
the parents, as opposed to have added by the evil merge). (2) if
the path does not exist in the merge result, it is "deleted".

Since we can say "new" and "deleted", there is no reason not to
follow the /dev/null convention.  This fixes it.

Appending function name after @@@ ... @@@ is trivial, so
implement it.
