What is the right way to iterate over the changed files? Should I copy and adapt the following from wt-status.c?

static void wt_status_print_changed(struct wt_status *s)
{
     struct rev_info rev;
     init_revisions(&rev, "");
     setup_revisions(0, NULL, &rev, NULL);
     rev.diffopt.output_format |= DIFF_FORMAT_CALLBACK;
     rev.diffopt.format_callback = wt_status_print_changed_cb;
     rev.diffopt.format_callback_data = s;
     wt_read_cache(s);
     run_diff_files(&rev, 0);
}
