It is interesting to note that adding the options is all we need to do here,
the machinery is such that these options will be taken into account
automatically when set.

* diff command: support --look-for-moves and --look-for-adds options
This is useful when using `darcs diff` with unrecorded changes.
(Note that --look-for-replaces makes no sense for diff.)

What I'm not seeing is how the output or behaviour with `--look-for-moves`
differs from if you run with `--look-for-adds`?
With --look-for-moves you get the diffs for precisely the files that
you renamed plus whatever it would show without the option. With --
look-for-adds you get the diffs for every (non-boring) file that
happens to exist in your repo.
