diffstat: with --git, mark binary files with Bin Normally, diffs without any text insertions or deletions are reported as having 0 lines changed by stock diffstat. Compatibility is preserved with stock diffstat in this case, but when using --git, binary files are marked with Bin as a means of clarification. git diff --stat does something similar, though it also includes the old and new file sizes.
