This change looks sensible to me, but I found the commit message quite
confusing.
The code being changed here is to do with choosing whether to copy the
working tree file to the temporary directory (or symlink it) and hence
only indirectly related to whether it will be copied back. It might be
clearer to phrase it like this:
difftool --dir-diff: always use identical working tree file
When deciding whether or not we should link a working tree file into
the temporary right-hand directory for a directory diff, we
currently behave differently in the --symlink and --no-symlink
cases. If using symlinks any identical files are linked across but
with --no-symlink only files that contain unstaged changes are
copied.
Change this so that identical files are copied across as well. This
is beneficial because it widens the set of circumstances in which we
copy changes made by the user back into the working tree.
