Sure, I understand that, but that's not what I meant. What I wanted
to know was why Pranit didn't just use the simpler:

    grep '^diff --git' "$1" >out
    exit 0

and then, in tests:

    test_line_count = n out

where 'n' is 0, 1, or 2 as expected by the test.

Unfortunately, you missed the rest of the discussion since Pranit
(presumably) accidentally dropped the mailing list when he replied,
and I didn't notice the omission when replying to him with the above
suggestion, which would have saved you the bother of going through
this, as well.

Your #3 is effectively what I had suggested, as well (which is
reproduced above). I had already made this change locally along with
some other changes I suggested in other responses, and those changes
look like this (atop Pranit's two patches), which isn't too bad:
