Well, that was kind of the point. Yes, it makrs it recursive even for 
--raw, but the fact is, "git diff" is _always_ recursive (even for --raw) 
for most common usage: anything that involves the index.

So "git diff" is fundamentally different from "git log" and "git show" and 
friends. "git diff" can work on the files and index, which "git log" and 
"git show" never do.
