This feature is awesome. This has bothered me about --stat, but I
haven't done anything about it.

Wait, isn't there a bug here in the existing --summary code, its
documentation says it'll show information "such as creations, renames
and mode changes".

But even though your --compact-summary shows that the file is being
added and its mode changed:

    $ diff -ru <(./git-show --stat 0433d533f1) <(./git-show --stat 
--compact-summary 0433d533f1)

There is no difference between --stat with and without --summary on the
same commit, shouldn't it show "create mode [...]" ?

E.g. 95450bbbaa will do the trick for both:

    $ diff -ru <(./git-show --stat 95450bbbaa) <(./git-show --stat --summary 
95450bbbaa)

If for some reason the lack of information about the commit under
--summary isn't a bug/fixable it makes sense to document the differences
here.

"Mode changes are shown as" is better worded.
