Well, showing is Ok as long as you do not try pick and apply.  Or did I

If I understand correctly git gui bases its patches on what it shows in the
diff window - which makes sense, because otherwise it would be a PITA to
find out which hunk the user actually wanted.

We could allow diffs without context and disable staging in that case, but I
suspect this would only confuse the user.
