How does "describe" see if the working tree is dirty?  What
mechanism does it use?  Doesn't it run the "diff-index" command
internally?

And with this patch, aren't you changing the default behaviour of
"diff" family of commands by touching repo_diff_setup() function?
How does it not affect the behaviour of the "diff-index" command,
hence the input "git describe" uses to formulate its output?
