[PATCH v4' 1/2] gitk: do not parse " >" context as submodule change

<671110fcac73c5fc8a935b82d88f8553c510c50c.1271694102.git.trast@student.ethz.ch>

Since 5c838d2 (gitk: Use the --submodule option for displaying diffs when available, 2009-10-28) gitk erroneously matches " >" and " <" at the beginning of a line in the submodule code even if we're in the diff text section and the lines should be treated as context.

Fix by (ab)using the $diffinhdr variable also in the 'Submodule...' case, and move the " >"/" <" specific code inside the $diffinhdr test. The existing code will set $diffinhdr to 0 when it hits a "+++", so that it is always 0 when we can hit a context line.

Sure.
