[issue491] mq: Information loss with --git patches and qrefresh

New submission from Michael Gebetsroither <michael.geb at gmx.at>:

a patch created with qrefresh and --git is not automatically refreshed with
--git. So every permission information gets lost.

it would additionally be nice to make patches automatically --git if needed
(permissions), or make it configurable so that every patch is created with --git.

ThomasAH suggested something as follows:
new option [diff] git = foo (with foo out of yes/no/warn/auto). Where 'warn'
prints a warning when permissions/copies would be discarded and 'auto' uses git
format if needed.
