Yup, it sucks.  I am curious (but not strongly interested enough to
demand) to learn the reason why from GitHub folks.

I only see 'file', 'file2', 'b', 'c', etc. used in the tests; do we
ever use any path that ends with a colon?

I wonder if would it be more robust to use something like

	sed -e 's|^.*/\([a-z]*\)/:$|/directory-path-\1/:|'

in place of "grep -v /" to redact the temporary directory names
difftool creates.  It would give you /directory-path-left/: or
/directory-path-right/: instead of removing these lines and it would
clarify what these two series of file names are, which may be an
added bonus.
