I ran magit-status, then got a log buffer by typing l l, then wanted to
explore the various ways of showing diffs. I typed C-h c d, and saw "d
runs the command magit-diff-popup" in the echo area; then I typed d, saw
the popup, and again typed C-h c d. I was hoping to see something like
"d runs the command magit-diff-dwim". But instead I saw "d runs the
command magit-invoke-popup-action". The same message appears with the
various other diff keys.
This makes it a little hard to explore those various options. In order
to learn about them, I have to either invoke each, and guess what it's
doing; or read the manual; it'd be more convenient if C-h c would tell
me the names of the elisp functions that the various keys run.
