Actually, its not hard to find:

http://hjemli.net/git/cgit/tree/ui-patch.c


In header(), the:
		htmlf("\n--- a/%s\n", path1);
		htmlf("+++ b/%s\n", path2);
needs to be conditional on is_null_sha1(sha1)/is_null_sha1(sha2) with
the alternative of:
		htmlf("\n--- /%s\n", path1);
		htmlf("+++ /%s\n", path2);
which there are a variety of ways to achieve...

Michael: Fancy fixing that on the server and sending a patch
upstream? :)

Cheers,

Richard
