diff.compactionHeuristic for better diffs -- see "beautiful diffs" section in https://github.com/blog/2188-git-2-9-has-been-released

Currently we calculate these diffs using libgit2, which does not have this option AFAICT. This would become possible for us if we started computing them instead with the git binary, as the github package does.
