These would cleanly apply on sb/diff-color-move.

I would have hoped to not need to reroll that topic.
Though I do find patches 1&2 valuable either on top or squashed
into "[PATCH] diff.c: color moved lines differently" and
"[PATCH] diff.c: color moved lines differently, plain mode"
respectively.

So I'd ask to pick at least patches 1&2 on top of that series, please?
(I am missing the context for *why* you preference is to not do
exactly this).

Thanks.
