I thought about that as well, I just fear we'll end up with less pull
requests (and more plain diffs) when people have to learn to use that
script and copy its output into an email instead of clicking on Github's
pull request knob, even though the difference is mostly a psychological
one.

Maybe I'm just overrating the Github hipe ...
