[PATCH] [TRIVIAL] Use HEAD as the default range start of magit-diff.

[George Kadianakis]

---
Continuing with another uber-trivial patch; this one uses HEAD as the
default range beginning of magit-diff. It's currently empty which is
unhelpful. I use magit-diff with HEAD a lot and this patch has been
hanging in my local setup for a while and maybe it's useful for
someone else as well.

Since this patch has (AFAICT) not made it in, here is the same thing rewritten into a defadvice than can be dropped into your .emacs;


(defadvice magit-diff (before magit-diff-default-to-head activate)
  "Offer HEAD as first default for magit-diff"
  (interactive (list (magit-read-rev-range "Diff" "HEAD"))))
