I do not agree with that argument.

By the way, I've just tried to feed the 'patch' command (version 2.5.9)
with a diff made by mercurial with and without --git and the result is
exactly the _same_ for 'patch' simply skips the parts it cannot
interpret.

Thus I would ask: is there any major the tool that can extract more from
the standard diff format than from git's extended version?

Best regards,
