Hi Dima,
after commit 2c8a7e5 the following receipt doesn't work:

M-! git show HEAD RET
C-x o
C-x C-q
M-x diff-mode RET
n
;; Signal error:
diff-beginning-of-file-and-junk: Can’t find the beginning of the file

I use above code very often: before commit 2c8a7e5, it skips the commit
message and jumps to the first hunk.
Is it possible to make above snippet working as before?

Regards,
Tino
