This is a stupid git setting indeed and I think it needs to be fixed by
yelling at the user to issue

$ git config --global diff.noprefix true

The global flag is of course optional.

Our github mirror should include a .gitconfig file with that option set
by default.


This of course does not mean that I oppose your diff. But I will not
review it :)
