Yes, I've been using "-b" recently:

git diff -b -M --stat linus..$RELEASE

and if I remove the "-b", we match:

 27 files changed, 434 insertions(+), 359 deletions(-)

I have a vague memory of having a good reason to cut over to "-b"
a while back and noting that in my pull request, but if you prefer
no -b, no problem.
