True.
The thing is "diff" works on pair of files from old side and new
side, so a removed path still conceptually exists on both sides as a
change from
<old path name, old state (has certain contents)>
to
<new path name, new state (no longer exists)>
It is the same story for a created path.
Having learned that, a proposal to rephrase the updated
documentation is very much welcomed.
Thanks.
