Alternatively, we could put it in the caller, like so:
diff --git a/diff.c b/diff.c
index 78f4e7518f..e7281e75eb 100644
--- a/diff.c
+++ b/diff.c
@@ -6528,6 +6528,7 @@ void diff_flush(struct diff_options *options)
if (check_pair_status(p))
flush_one_pair(p, options);
}
+ options->found_changes = !!q->nr;
separator++;
}
Yup, I suspect they amount to the same thing in practice, but I
couldn't come up with a good explanation to give casual readers of
the conditional call to flush_one_pair() a few lines above why
this is correct.
