Good catch!

Describing the current state of affairs and using imperative mode, it
could be something like:

  When creating "new file" diffs against i-t-a index entries, diff-lib
  erroneously uses the mode of the cache entry rather than the mode of
  the file in the worktree. Change run_diff_files() to correctly use the
  mode of the worktree file in this case.

More importantly:

I can confirm that the bug is there before your patch and that your
patch fixes it. Could you add a test in this patch so we can trust that
this stays fixed?

Martin
