Btw, am I just smoking stuff, or is this going to be fundamentally 
problematic for "git-apply -R" if we ever want to support that?

I think the new binary diff is non-reversible. That's ok right now, since 
we don't actually support patching in reverse (if you want to get the 
reverse patch, you need to _diff_ it in reverse and then patch it that 
way).

But at least in theory we might well want to do "-R" eventually.

Hmm? Or did I just mis-understand the format?
