Get original file from new patched file and a diff.md

Getting original file from a new or patched file from a diff file.

Instead of diff orig new > diff0 and keeping diff0, and original file,

diff new orig > diff0 then keep the new and diff0 and discard the original file.

Didn't take very long to think of this, but I may forget again.

Having this "I have to come up with a solution" feeling stresses me. ARCHIVED!
