How does it do its diff exactly?

I usually use the Unix "diff" command, but when the repository
format is upgraded, I got changes, e.g. in the format-3 to
format-5 upgrade:

 Node-path: macosx/dports/gnome/liferea/Portfile
 Node-kind: file
 Node-action: change
-Prop-delta: true
-Prop-content-length: 10
 Text-delta: true
 Text-delta-base-md5: e15e61a13799682cc4486082167e65f6
 Text-content-length: 463
 Text-content-md5: dbc4382f965992da83e88ab62f6bd34f
-Content-length: 473
+Content-length: 463
 
-PROPS-END

and

-Node-path: tex/Makefile
-Node-kind: file
-Node-action: change
-Prop-delta: true
-Prop-content-length: 10
-Content-length: 10
-
-PROPS-END

It may be a consequence of bug 2743 (though it is supposed to affect
the working copy only). However, it seems that the meaning is the
same (empty list of properties vs nothing).
