From: Johannes Schindelin <redacted> When showing what changed between old and new commits, we show a diff of the patches. This diff is a diff between diffs, therefore there are nested +/- signs, and it can be relatively hard to understand what is going on. With the --dual-color option, the preimage and the postimage are colored like the diffs they are, and the *outer* +/- sign is inverted for clarity.
