    Add --file to download the patch

    Checked that I can download a patch to a file with python3 and python2.

    Also that I cannot mix --print, -R and --file together.

      This might be better as --write, since --file arguments often mean "Takes in a file" rather than "writing a file." Thoughts?

      I think a better way of handling this would be to generate a stream up-front that'll go to the right place (file handle or output stream) and then just write to that directly, without special-casing at output time.

      It'd need to be tested for Unicode and non-Unicode diff output on Python 2 and 3.

      I have something in mind for this, if you'd like me to take over the change.

      1. Yeah, of course. You can take it over. ????
