godiff return no output to goimports

[sohailmd1-lhat]

Welcome

• Yes, I'm using a binary release within 2 latest major releases. Only such installations are supported.
• Yes, I've searched similar issues on GitHub and didn't find any.
• Yes, I've tried with the standalone linter if available (e.g., gocritic, go vet, etc.). (https://golangci-lint.run/usage/linters/)
• Yes, I've read the typecheck section of the FAQ (https://golangci-lint.run/usage/faq/#why-do-you-have-typecheck-errors).

Description of the problem

Issue is similar to #307

#1169

I am seeing this error in windows.

level=error msg="Running error: 1 error occurred:\n\t* can't run linter goanalysis_metalinter: goimports: can't extract issues from gofmt diff output "": got no diffs from patch parser: \n\n"

First I got the error that "diff" was not present in the PATH value. I installed it and added it to the PATH. Then it gave the above error where diff parser did not return any output to goimports.
