Fix overwriting of files when applying contextually independent diffs
Noticed by applying two diffs of different contexts to the same file. The check for existence of a file was wrong: the test assumed it was a directory and reset the errno (twice: directly and by calling lstat). So if an entry existed and was _not_ a directory no attempt was made to rename into it, because the errno (expected by renaming code) was already reset to 0. This resulted in error: fatal: unable to write file file mode 100644 For Linux, removing "errno = 0" is enough, as lstat wont modify errno if it was successful. The behavior should not be depended upon, though, so modify the "if" as well. The test simulates this situation.
