Data structures
This is the internal representation for a single file (blob). It
records the blob object name (if known -- for a work tree file it
typically is a NUL SHA-1), filemode and pathname. This is what the

+`diff_addremove()`, `diff_change()` and `diff_unmerge()` synthesize and
feed `diff_queue()` function with.
* `struct diff_filepair`
operation, but some do not have anything to do with the diffcore
library.
+`touched_flags`::
+ Records whether a flag has been changed due to user request

+`set_default`::
+ Callback which allows tweaking the options in diff_setup_done().
