Git's diff machinery does not follow symlinks, which makes sense as git
itself also does not, but stores the symlink destination.
In --no-index mode however, it is useful for diff to to follow symlinks,
matching the behaviour of ordinary diff. A new --no-dereference (name
copied from diff) option has been added to disable this behaviour.
