Yeah, I'll try to come up with something.  I was originally going to
test 'git -c diff.context=5 rebase', but of course that depends on
Denton's change too to work.

I was too, but the diff.context change didn't work until I fixed both
format-patch and am to pay attention to diff.context.

Does that mean that diff.context is checked in the wrong place in
diff.c, and should be moved from git_diff_ui_config() to
git_diff_basic_config()?  (And perhaps the same is true for
diff.algorithm?)
