We want a short-and-sweet name "diff-flush-patch" to mean "flush all the queued diff elements" so rename the singleton one from diff-flush-patch to diff-flush-patch-filepair to make room in 04/10 and then introduce the "diff-flush-patch-all" in 05/10. I just said with the above explanation the changes in 04/10 and 05/10 become undertandable, which is a bit different from being justifiable. "diff_flush_raw()", "diff_flush_stat()", etc. are _all_ about a single filepair. I'd rather see diff_flush_patch() to be also about a single filepair. It may be helpful to have a helper that calls diff_flush_patch() for all filepairs in the queue, but can't that function get a new name instead? By definition, it will be called much less often than a pair-wise one, so it can afford to have a longer name. diff_flush_patch_queue() or something, perhaps? I am not sure if it should be diff_flush_queue_patch(), or even diff_flush_queue(struct diff_options *o, diff_flush_fn fn); where diff_flush_fn is typedef void (*diff_flush_fn)(struct diff_filepair *p, struct diff_options *o, void *other_data) that can be used to flush the queue by calling any of these filepair-wise flush functions like diff_flush_{raw,stat,checkdiff,patch}. This last approach might be overkill, but if you want to try it, you'd need a preparatory step to give an unused "void *other" to diff_flush_{raw,patch,checkdiff} as diff_flush_stat() is an oddball that needs an extra "accumulator" pointer. I actually wonder if that "diffstat" pointer should become part of "struct diff_options", though.
