May you please fix the git to generate minimized patches?

You can use a different diff algorithm.

Soon we'll have another diff algorithm "anchor" that tries to
keep a given line out of the +/- but rather move other lines around
the line to give equal results.

While all of the above is correct, my understanding is that none of
them would produce a patch that KES wants to see.

And we shouldn't ;-)  The two changes KES shows in the message are
not equivalent.
