+ *
+ * When iterating over a diff, this will be passed to most callbacks and

+ * example is that the "flags" field may not have either the `BINARY` or the

+ * in hunk and/or line callbacks to the diff foreach iteration function. It
+ * will just use the git attributes for those files.
+ *
+ * The similarity score is zero unless you call `git_diff_find_similar()`
+ * which does a similarity analysis of files in the diff. Use that
+ * function to do rename and copy detection, and to split heavily modified
+ * files in add/delete pairs. After that call, deltas with a status of
+ * GIT_DELTA_RENAMED or GIT_DELTA_COPIED will have a similarity score
+ * between 0 and 100 indicating how similar the old and new sides are.
+ *
+ * If you ask `git_diff_find_similar` to find heavily modified files to
+ * break, but to not *actually* break the records, then GIT_DELTA_MODIFIED
+ * records may have a non-zero similarity score if the self-similarity is
