Patch output can be suppressed using `--no-patch`.
Non-patch diff formats `--raw`, `--name-only`, `--name-status`,
and `--summary` are supported. Diff stat formats
(`--stat`, `--numstat`, `--shortstat`, `--dirstat`) are not
currently implemented.
Other diff formats are supported, including `--raw`,
`--name-only`, `--name-status`, `--summary`, `--check`,
`--stat`, `--numstat`, and `--shortstat`.

the tracked range are counted. `--dirstat` is not supported:
by default it measures whole-file change rather than the
line-level diff, so it cannot be confined to the tracked range.
Use `--numstat` for exact per-file counts within the range.

`--no-prefix`, and whitespace options (`-w`, `-b`) are supported,
