It appears that you seem to have based this patch on my "if we were
to make 'git diff' help you by adding to diffcore pipeline, it would
look like this" illustration patch.

But I later sent a real version of "diff --rotate-to/--start-at"
patch (and Cc'ed you, IIRC).

  https://lore.kernel.org/git/xmqqo8gqwasu.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

Please build on top of that patch instead.  E.g.

    $ git fetch
    $ git checkout -b zh/difftool-start-at fb4bfd0f8b

then work on that topic branch, perhaps.  You do not have to (and
you do not want to) include my changes to your patches.

Thanks.
