Hello,

I've encountered a small error in the diff header generation when diffing against files which are not tracked by git:

[13:49] mk@crap ~/Projects/git > git diff git.c ~/bin/viname|head

diff --git a/git.c b/home/mk/bin/viname

When a revision is specified, git-diff prints a/home/mk/bin/viname
instead of a/git.c

Because of my final exams I've got no time to look into it right now.
