LibGit2Sharp equivalent of git diff --stat

Question

I'm looking for a way to capture how many lines have changed in each file in my working directory - like git diff --stat in git - is there a way to do this with LibGit2Sharp?

I know I can get total LinesAdded/Deleted from a Patch, but I'm wondering on a file by file basis.

The following will enumerate all the files that have been changed between two commits, along with the number of changes (global, line additions and line removals).

var patch = repo.Diff.Compare<Patch>(fromCommit, untilCommit);

foreach (var pec in patch)
{
    Console.WriteLine("{0} = {1} ({2}+ and {3}-)",
        pec.Path,
        pec.LinesAdded + pec.LinesDeleted,
        pec.LinesAdded,
        pec.LinesDeleted);
}

Would you need to access a specific file within a Patch, the types exposes an indexer to ease that

PatchEntryChanges entryChanges = patch["path/to/my/file.txt"];

Genius! Exactly what I needed - thanks! And thanks for the extra tidbit about accessing that file too! – sorrell May 12 '15 at 19:06
