git: correctly handle p1() on dirstate when underlying git repo is empty This shows up in my next change, which ends up making an empty git repo and then running hg. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8271

# Script to get stable diff output on any platform.
#
# Output of this script is almost equivalent to GNU diff with "-Nru".
#
# Use this script as "hg pdiff" via extdiff extension with preparation
# below in test scripts:
#
#   $ cat >> $HGRCPATH <<EOF
#   > [extdiff]
#   > pdiff = sh "$RUNTESTDIR/pdiff"
#   > EOF
