[rdiff-backup-users] feature request

[Farkas Levente]

hi,
sometimes it would be very useful to compare to different backup copy of 
the same file (eg. diff -u /etc/passwd<yesterday> /etc/passwd<3 days 
ago>). sometimes I would not like to '--restore-as-of' just compare, ie. 
in stead of:
rdiff-backup -r 1D <base>/etc/passwd /tmp/etc/passwd.1D
rdiff-backup -r 3D <base>/etc/passwd /tmp/etc/passwd.3D
diff -u /tmp/etc/passwd.1D /tmp/etc/passwd.3D
one simple command (which even can use the metadata) something like this:
rdiff-backup --diff -u 1D 3D <base>/etc/passwd
would be very useful.
thanks.
yours.
