Bug Description

FEATURE REQUEST

    Consider typical bzr diff output:

        === added file 'Makefile'
        --- Makefile 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000
        +++ Makefile 2007-08-05 21:38:10 +0000

    I propose that a "header" is added to the beginning of diff to announce
    that this diff/patch was generated byg bzr:

        Generated-by: bazaar <VERSION>
        === added file 'Makefile'
        --- Makefile 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000
        +++ Makefile 2007-08-05 21:38:10 +0000

    There <VERSION> is the current bzr version information.

FOR COMPARISION

    Here how git's diff output looks like:

    gt diff 46f19ba9fd4f5b7279102e78788089d3bbe02d73

     lisp/ChangeLog | 14 ++++++++++++++
     lisp/foo/a.el | 15 ++++++++-------
     lisp/foo/b.el | 14 +++++++++-----
     lisp/foo/c.el | 2 +-
     4 files changed, 32 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-)

    diff --git a/lisp/ChangeLog b/lisp/ChangeLog
    index 72848c4..ed73c00 100644
    --- a/lisp/ChangeLog
    +++ b/lisp/ChangeLog
