Bug Description

Binary package hint: geany

Geany doesn't recognize .dpatch nor .debdiff files as diff's, and so doesn't color them.

Upstream refused to add them, saying that people can add them manually to the configuration file.

Since those formats are very common in Debian and Ubuntu related development I think it would be good to have them recognized by default.
