Some people (not me) are proposing that "merge" should accept and apply a list
of separate changes. If we end up making "merge" do this, then "diff" should
do so too. I feel a bit uncomfortable about the idea, not being sure that it
is well defined in all situations, but it's a possible future extension that
can be discussed in detail when people want to discuss it.
