Agreed on --no-index, not convinced by --no-timestamps and -p0.
 
FWIW, I use:
| QUILT_NO_DIFF_INDEX=true
| QUILT_DIFF_ARGS="--color=auto -p ab"
| QUILT_REFRESH_ARGS="-p ab"

No need to walk through them all, filterdiff is your friend.
 * --strip 0, if you want to keep -p0.
 * --remove-timestamps, if you want --no-timestamps.
 * dpatch stuff will be stripped.
