That is, something like the attached patch.

I cannot afford to do this to everybody, but you seem to be new to the community, and every once in a while teaching by showing example is the best way to do things, so...

Subject: [PATCH] diff-tree -r -t: include added/removed directories in the output

We used to include only the modified and typechanged directories in the ouptut, but for consistency's sake, we should also include added and removed ones as well.

This makes the output more consistent, but it may break existing scripts that expect to see the current output which has long been the established behaviour.
