I noticed when answering a StackOverflow question that apparently
--stat modifies the raw diff itself, instead of just adding a diffstat
to the output. In the linux kernel:
$ git diff-tree --raw -M 00a2430ff07d4e0e0e7e24e02fd8adede333b797

Is this intentional? And is there a way to generate a raw version of
the extended stat without using --stat?
