Could you enlighten the commit log readers a bit better here? Those
who know the change in 2.6.12 (i.e. "'mmapping with length 0 must
fail', says SUSv3, so we fail") you have in mind would know what you
mean by "in fact any empty file" even if you did not have "(since
Linux 2.6.12)", but those who do not know it would not be helped
with just "(since Linux 2.6.12)".

Sounds good. In the longer term, we may want to move this
file-scope static to per-infocation "struct diff_options" and clean
up the storage used to hold the list of path patterns after we are
done with the diff, but that is outside the scope of this series.
Thanks.
