[issue7585] [patch] difflib should separate filename from timestamp with tab

[Brian Curtin]

Brian Curtin <curtin at acm.org> added the comment:

I agree that splitting with a tab character is good, but I think it
should be split by a tab character in every case. 

If the separator is different based on what data is provided, then it
complicates parsing and would have to be explained in documentation that
we provide different header formats.
