The diffs queued from git-diff-pairs(1) are flushed when stdin is closed. To enable greater flexibility, allow control over when the diff queue is flushed by writing a single NUL byte on stdin between input file pairs. Diff output between flushes is separated by a single NUL byte.

A NUL +byte is also written to the output to delimit between these batches of diffs. + Usage of this command enables the traditional diff pipeline to be broken up into separate stages where `diff-pairs` acts as the output phase.
