Sure if you think it's worth a regression test ... "git apply -p2" of the 
following patch fails with "fatal: git diff header lacks filename information 
when removing 2 leading pathname components (line 6)" with the fix, and 
creates b/f without:

	diff --git a/f b/f
	new file mode 100644
	index 0000000..6a69f92
	--- /dev/null
	+++ b/f
	@@ -0,0 +1 @@
	+f

(Some earlier versions of git failed with "fatal: git apply: bad git-diff - 
inconsistent new filename on line 5" in this case.)
