Hi Thomas,

Right, that's why I did it this way: `tbdiff` did it.

Yep, and even worse, it also leads to uninteresting differences.

Exactly.

Very important paragraph here, thank you!

That's a bit more strict than the preimage. How about

			p = strstr(p, "@@");
			strbuf_addstr(&buf, p ? p : "@@");

instead?

The rest of the patch looks fine to me,
