Apparently I did not oversee it. Assume you have added a new file to
HEAD of parent branch, but you branched from a previous commit. When the
new branch is committed over HEAD the new file will, incorrectly, be
part of it and diff-tree will not work as expected.

I should avoid taking 6 months to submit a patch to avoid forgetting why
I did what I did :)
