It does not bother me (even though I do not read Vietnamese), but this has been brought up a few times, and we may want to revert the i18n of the diffstat summary. It does not seem to add much value to the system but annoys people. After all, the "upstream" diffstat does not localizes this string (I just checked diffstat-1.55 with Jan 2012 timestamp).
