           Summary: Kompare does not work well with git patches
           Product: kompare
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kompare-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: annulen at yandex.ru


Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

When opening git pathc, Kompare shows error "The diff is malformed. Some lines
could not be parsed and will not be displayed in the diff view." 

Also, Kompare shows dummy a/ and b/ prefixes as directories.

Also, Kompare recognizes git patches as "application/mbox" files, and
MIME-type-based logic does not work for them ("text/x-patch" is expected)

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Open any git patch

Actual Results:  
Error about malformed patch is shown. Git patch is not visualized in optimal
way

Expected Results:  
Better support for git patches
