$ git diff-tree -p 52e8a6^2 52d8a6 -- git-fetch.sh
shows a change that trivially is redundant, like this:
diff --git a/git-fetch.sh b/git-fetch.sh

...Notice the first '-' and '+' lines of second hunk are identical?
There is another interesting thing. This is running diff between 52e8a6^2 and 52d8a6 blobs, but if I change them slightly so that the first hunk is not different, then this anomaly disappears.
