[PATCH] diff: mode bits fixes
The core GIT repository has trees that record regular file mode
in 0664 instead of normalized 0644 pattern. Comparing such a
tree with another tree that records the same file in 0644
pattern without content changes with git-diff-tree causes it to
feed otherwise unmodified pairs to the diff_change() routine,
which triggers a sanity check routine and barfs. This patch
fixes the problem, along with the fix to another caller that
uses unnormalized mode bits to call diff_change() routine in a
similar way.
Without this patch, you will see "fatal error" from diff-tree
when you run git-deltafy-script on the core GIT repository
itself.
