[Monotone-devel] mtn diff on revision with no parents

[Matthew Sackman]

Howdy,

When you have two revisions, it's easy to get the diff between them. If
you're doing nice notification stuff, you can do automate parents and
then for each parent you can do mtn diff -r $parentRev -r $curRev

So what on earth do you do when there's no parent? This occurs for the
first checkin on a new branch which has no parent revision on another
branch. I want to get the diff which consists of all the new files -
every line should start with a '+'.

It's clearly silly to have a notification system that tells you what
changes between revisions but doesn't tell you what the content of a new
branch is.

Any ideas?

Matthew
