Did you try it? It works as-is with that patch. Exactly because it will 
call git-diff-tree with the two SHA1's, and since they are now trees (and 
not blobs) git-diff-tree will do the right thing.

And no, I didn't actually test it. But it really _should_ work with that 
trivial diff, including with the "a..b" format.
