One of my coworkers asked me to set it up so that header files appeared
first in diffs. I kinda liked that, so I stuck with it.

Sure. I don't actually expect to keep this patch as-is anyways, since I
think we might want to do something else... as exposing these flags
seems incorrect to me...

I actually almost wonder if we should set both DO_MATCH_DIRECTORY and
DO_MATCH_LEADING_PATHSPEC in match_pathspec when is_dir is true.

The DO_MATCH_DIRECTORY causes pathspecs to match if we have a path like
"a/b/c/d" and a pathspec like "a/b/c".

The DO_MATCH_LEADING_PATHSPEC does the inverse: if we have a path like
"a/b/c" then we match a pathspec like "a/b/c/d"

I guess it really depends on the nature of the caller. In the normal
case, I guess we don't check intermediate directory paths and only check
the end resulting files. But in my case, we're checking "a/b/c" before
we descend into it to check its inner contents.
