If I would have had to guess from the documentation: What does "git diff
--dirstat --shortstat" do? I would have answered: It displays both the
dirstat and the shortstat.

So, is what you are trying to "fix" a peculiarity of
"--dirstat=changes", or do you simplify prefer --dirstat and --shortstat
to override each other?

Maybe I'm overlooking something (and that's not a rhetorical
conditional), but if you specify both options when you want the output
of only one them, the answer would be the obvious one, not a patch,
wouldn't it?

If there is indeed a good reason to change the behavior it should be
documented.
