Equivalent of "git diff" in trac

[Chaman Agrawal]

Hi folks,

I wanted to compare the net changes in ticket https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/27852 in previous commits. On clicking on a particular commit, trac shows the changes in that commit but I wanted to see the changes in multiple commits at once(or simply to say, compare two states of a branch) I can pull the branch to my local and then use `git diff` but I wanted to know if there is a way to do that in the trac interface directly.

Thanks!

Not sure if there is a UI for it, but you can use URLs in this format:

https://git.sagemath.org/sage.git/diff?id2=8bdc326ba57d1bb9664f63cf165a9e9920cc1afc&id=dc673c17555efca611f68398d5013b66e9825463

to diff two commits. You can also replace `diff` with `patch` to generate a plaintext patch instead.
