Without the groupings, only the first alternation matches the diff marker. For example, local na_doc='todo\.txt\|version\d\.txt\|tags' ... +'g^diff --git a/runtime/doc/'${na_doc}'... becomes, after expansion, ... +'g^diff --git a/runtime/doc/todo\.txt\|version\d\.txt\|tags'... so the matches become "^diff --get a/runtime/doc/todo\.txt", "version\d\.txt", or "tags". Adding the grouping ensures the expected behavior of requiring "^diff --get a/runtime/doc/" before every filename.
