Re: [PATCH] diff: correct newline in summary for renamed files

+	git checkout -b mode initial &&

would 'test_chmod +x file0 &&' work here?

This one wants to set +x only in the index, leaving the working tree
version without the executable bit.  test_chmod is about setting
both, so it would do something different from what we want to do
here.
