That's a fair point, but...this gets back to my cover letter comments
about patches 5, 6, and 8.  They implement a code feature that seems
useful in general...but which Dscho and Christian didn't like using in
this particular command; they just wanted all output on stdout.

So, it's hard to add a test, because there's no code anywhere that
exercises it in this series anymore.  I originally wanted this feature
in my remerge-diff series, but the idea of conflict headers made me
punt it to this series.  I wanted it for this series, but Dscho and
Christian didn't.  I could have punted again, but decided the
underlying want kept coming up and decided to not excise it --
especially since Dscho was helping improve it.  And Junio commented
that he liked the idea[1].

But yeah, it does leave it feeling slightly odd that we implemented a
feature that nothing is currently using.  Maybe these 3 should be
split off into their own series?  Still wouldn't have a test yet,
though.

That macro is simple?  I thought I basically understood Dscho's code,
but looking at what you did with diff_warn_rename_limit(), I think I'm
lost.

Because the formatted string being printed to the file won't have the
same "warning: " prefix that is normally added to stuff in usage?

That's a fair point; that does have a bit of a consistency problem.
And I'd rather the messages were consistent regardless of where they
are printed.

Hmm, makes sense.

Why do the only callers have a NULL parameter here?  Is this one of
those va_list/va_args things I never bothered to properly learn?
