Libified diff-index: backward compatibility fix.
"diff-index -m" does not mean "do not ignore merges", but means "pretend missing files match the index". The previous round tried to address this, but failed because setup_revisions() ate "-m" flag before the caller had a chance to intervene. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
