Git doesn't "commit diffs", which is why this is working (and a frequent
source of confusion for people who don't know the architecture of Git).

One of those things that reassures me that Git has made the right
choices.

I wouldn't know how to configure repo.or.cz (or any other mirror), but
it might be worth asking the maintainers of that site if they would
consider adding a global configuration.  Customizing the (global)
configuation on orgmode.org is at Jasons discretion, I guess.

Don't read them on the mailing list, then.  Apply them in Git and look
at them whichever way you want to.
