Avoiding _these_ Unicode characters would be helpful, yes. Headings would be
very good, because then I could navigate by section, basically. I'm only seeing
_exactly_ one line at once (like on a calculator). If you would i.e. insert
#'s to indicate a new file, e.g.

### data.tar.gz

(as a third indentation level), it could be beneficial. In this case, I could
jump with a regex from diff to diff. I don't mind the indentation, it's fine,
but if that's a good compromise for a copy-paste-format, then it's helpful, too
:).

Thanks
Sebastian
