When i compare two versions of a package new/deleted files aren't diffed correctly (in my opinion).

Example:

diff --recursive --unified --exclude test --exclude Makefile <package@1> <package@2>

# new files
Only in <package@1>: some-file-1.txt

# deleted files
Only in <package@2>: some-file-2.txt

After this PR:

diff --recursive --unified --new-file --exclude test --exclude Makefile <package@1> <package@2>

# new files
--- <package@1>/some-file-1.txt 1970-01-01 01:00:00.000000000 +0100
+++ <package@2>/some-file-1.txt 2021-09-09 11:11:11.000000000 +0200

Perfect, makes a lot of sense, that's why I love open source. Thank you so much!
