Similar here. I have the 'histogram' algorithm in the global config for
few years now.
Using the same algorithm for pull diffstat would be best, though;
I added "algorithm = default" to the repo config.

This KVM pull shows the reason why I abandoned 'myers' -- it can
obfuscate simple cut & paste. (I don't recall the case that brought
'histogram' and there apparently were no significant improvements to be
gained by switching since then.)
The patch in question is 76d837a4c0f9 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Don't
include SPAPR TCE code on non-pseries platforms"), see trimmed output of
both algorithms below.
First, the important hunks of the 'histogram' diff:

The move of kvmppc_h_pr_put_tce() under #ifdef is not so simple anymore.
