That seems inconvenient, in general.  Why do they do that?

But it doesn't matter at all for this one purpose.

                                 So "changed" doesn't have a clear and

When you're counting the added or changed lines, it should not matter
whether the tool distinguishs added lines from changed lines.
If it labels them all with +, you can still count them.
