Dear Maintainer,

the diffs created by "git diff" contain some more information, see the
first two lines in e.g.

| $ git diff v4.14..v4.15 -- Makefile
+ diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
+ index ccd981892ef2..c8b8e902d5a4 100644

(...)

This is something "filterdiff --clean" should remove - but does not.
Perhaps this could be changed some day.

Regards,

    Christoph
