Frankly, I don't find the diff list usefull. It's very easy to do 'cvs diff u'
And addidionaly it is done only on demand. Imagine huge update with over
100KB diff (unified diff enlarges the size of the changeset by a huge
margin). It would really hurt people with dialup connections that are
fetching email via POP3.


My vote is for commit-log-only ml. If anyone will demand the diff list we
can estabilish it then.
