Hi there:=0AI wish to use ediff to compare 2 revisions in a git repository,=
 but there seems to be no =0Alog-view-ediff counterpart to log-view-diff in=
 file log-view.el . Unfortunately, I don't know enough Lisp to do it myself=
, so I would be grateful if you could add =0Asuch a routine in the future.=
=0A=0AIn my eyes, it would also be an =0Aimprovement if the user could mark=
 2 revisions with the 'm' key and then=0A compare them at once. Marking the=
 log entry texts is a hit-and-miss =0Aaffair, if you miss the last empty li=
ne you'll be comparing the wrong =0Arevisions.=0AI contacted the author (St=
efan Monnier) and he asked me to send a bug report here.=0A=0AMore info, in=
