What is this git log -p .gitmodules doing?  It's walking down the
commit history, and picking out the commits in which that blob
changed.  Then it's diffing the blobs in those commits with each
other.  Why is git log -p <link> any different?  We already know how
to diff blobs, and we just need a way to diff links.
