Well, it's easy enough to do something like

for something like that.
You're right.  I've swallowed all four patches with a fixlet on
top; thanks.
Although, the thing is, once we have a built-in "git diff", there's 
actually little enough reason to ever use the old "git-diff-tree" vs 
"git-diff-index" vs "git-diff-files" at all. 
True, unless you are writing a Porcelain, that is.
It might actually be nice to prune some of the tons of git commands. At 
some point, the fact that

	echo bin/git-* | wc -w

returns 122 just makes you go "Hmm..".
Yes, but I thought the plan to deal with that was to set gitexecdir
somewhere other than $(prefix)/bin; removing git-diff-* siblings
would be unfriendly to Porcelains.
