Reminder:  files with only deletions will look like "file2.txt | 4 --"
Reminder: a move may be shown as a bunch of deletions at the old name and

Without cygwin, hg diff --stat | findstr "+++" will at least get you the

I don't know Powerscript, so I don't if Windows out of the box can cover
this step.  (But there are "DOS clones" of these utilities, as well as the
cygwin package)
