For what I wanted to do, I didn't see an easy way to add/populate a new filespec. It was easier to just use the raw libxdiff interfaces, but that's really just because I know the interfaces. In contrast, the ones to diff_filespec I've never really used, and I did not want to compare blob objects, I very much wanted to compare in-memory buffers (_and_ potentially blobs). So if you can show an easy example of how to populate a set of filespec pairs (not with blobs - with in-memory generated data) and insert them onto the lists, that would be good. In fact, maybe you can show me what git-merge-tree needs to do.. Hint hint.
