Split diff line by '\t' for metadata and path0.3.2.1-patched
This protects against `.split(None)` which uses consecutive whitespace as a separator to overlook paths where a single space is the filename. For example, in this diff line: line = ':100644 000000 e69de29bb2d1d6434b8b29ae775ad8c2e48c5391 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 D ' The deleted file is a file named ' ' (just one space). It's entirely possible to commit this, remove, and to produce the following output from `git diff`: git diff --name-status <SHA1> <SHA2> D M path/to/another/file.py ... This would cause the initial `.split(None, 5)` to fail as it will count all consecutive whitespace as a separator, disregarding the ' ' (single space) filename.
