Subject: diff-find-file-name and /dev/null

- --=-=-=

Hello,

using diff files (from git) that create new files like this:

- --- /dev/null
+++ b/foo/bar.c

I noticed that `diff-goto-source' opens /dev/null, which is usually not
desirable.  I use the attached small change to get the actual file.


regards,
Nikolaj Schumacher
