Next try.  It includes documentation, skips $Source:$ and $Header:$ as 
well, and the output diff does not contain any CVS keywords.

Ah yes, and if a file was actually created, it substitutes the --- file 
name with /dev/null.  In that case, the keywords are skipped, too!  
However, when a file was deleted, they are _not_ skipped.

Strictly speaking, it is wrong to just cut out the lines containing CVS 
keywords, since it is possible that there is an important change on that 
line, but we can cross that bridge once companies play such cute games 
with us.

But at least I tested the resulting patch with your phytec3180 patch this 
time...

Ciao,

# This is a simple state machine.

# There is the state of the current file; its header is stored
# in $current_file to avoid outputting it when all hunks were
# culled.  It is only printed before the first hunk, and then
# set to "" to avoid outputting it twice.
#
# There are the states of the current hunk, stored in
# * $current_hunk (possibly modified hunk)
# * $start_minus, $start_plus (from the original)
# * $plus, $minus, $space (the current count of the respective lines)
# a hunk is only printed (in flush_hunk) if any '+' or '-' lines
# are left after filtering.
#
# For $Log..$, there is the state $skip_logs, which is set to 1
# after seeing such a line, and set to 0 when the first line
# was seen which does not begin with '+'.
#
# A particularly nasty special case is when a single "*" was
# misattributed by the diff to be _inserted before_ a $Log, instead
# of _appended after_ a $Log.
# This is the purpose of the $before_log and $after_log variables:
# if not empty, the state machine expects the next line to begin
# with '+' or '-', respectively, and followed by a $Log.  If this
# expectation is not met, the variable is output.
