unidiff.errors.UnidiffParseError: Unexpected hunk found: @@ -2,6 +2,6 @@

I am writing diff files using Python's difflib.unified_diff();

One such file commences with:

--- 
+++ 
@@ -2,6 +2,6 @@

if I try to read it then unidiff fails with:

unidiff.errors.UnidiffParseError: Unexpected hunk found: @@ -2,6 +2,6 @@

I am left suspecting, when comparing it with the README samples that the missing filename is bothering it. If so, it shouldn't really given that difflib.unified_diff() produces output that lacks it.

Manually adding a filename as in:

--- test1
+++ test2
@@ -2,6 +2,6 @@

sees it loaded fine. Looks like I'll have to ask difflib to write those filenames out. All good I guess, though I can't help but feel as they are optional in difflib, they should rightly be optional in unidiff too. But that of course is a matter of opinion.

Hey @bernd-wechner @nsbradford

I know it's a bit late and it's been a few years now. But in case you still need this, I forked the repo and I'm going to maintain it (as it seems this one is unmaintained). I'm going to release a fix for your usecase.

Thanks. Off hand I can't recall where I was using that. If I find it I'll remember this I think. There's a chance it related to work I'm not involved in anymore mind you (having changed work in the past year).
