So I started re-reading this series, and decided that it might be
easier to advance the topic piece-by-piece. Will be merging up to
"consolidate code for emitting diffs" to 'next', after tweaking that
last commit a bit (see below).

This is not too bad per-se, but it would have been even better if
this part was done as:
if (t1 && t2) {
opt->change(opt, t1->entry.mode1, t1->entry.mode2,
t1->entry.sha1, t2->entry.sha1,
1, 1, path->buf, 0, 0);
}
Then we do not have to rely on an extra convention, "'mode == 0'
means the entry is missing", in addition to what we already have,
i.e. "t == NULL means the entry is missing".
This is minor, so I will not squash such a change in while merging
to 'next', but we may want to revisit and fix it up as a follow up
patch once the series is settled.

Style; I've merged these two lines into one, i.e.
} else {
There was another instance of it in show_path(), which I also
tweaked.
Thanks.
