Thanks both (Ævar and Dscho) for cleaning up my mess, and sorry for not responding sooner; I only just found time to read the discussion thread.

This would result in 'opts.output_format' containing (DIFF_FORMAT_PATCH | DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT), just as it did prior to 73a834e9e2 when --no-patch was specified.
