If (al < 0) then al != cl, so I would think we could drop the first part, and only check with al != cl || memcmp In theory we should use xdiff_compare_lines here as the rest of the lines could have more white space issues, but we catch that earlier via a die("color-moved-ws: allow-indentation-change cannot be combined with other white space modes"), so memcmp is fine. Side note: There are comments above this code that seem to be also obsolete after patch 1 ("...carried forward in pmb->wsd; ...)
