Bug#706576: lintian: warn of git binary diffs in quilt patches



Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.12
Severity: wishlist

I've seen a package that had a quilt patch with a hunk being git binary diff (see bug #706508). Such hunks are currently ignored by patch(1) from wheezy/unstable, but they fail to apply with patch(1) from experimental. It would be nice if Lintian could warn of such patches.
