One case where patience diff does much better

[John Yates]

Before Bram Cohen identified the patience connection I posted a
description of the DSEE / ClearCase diff algorithm to the darcs
mailing list:

One feature I remember especially fondly was a merge tool could
explicate a diff in terms of moves as well as inserts and deletes.
