Hi,
I was hoping to able to use ediff to compare the versions of a given
file on two git branches. I couldn't see anyway to do it though. I
have Emacs v23, with the standard version control package, and the
latest version from the git repository of git-emacs.
Am I missing something? Or is there another package that will do this?

Hi George,
I don't use git, but using cvs-mode,
the most obvious way to do it would to use
C-u d e <ediff in cvs>
and add -R<branch-tag> -R<other-branch-tag> to the CVS command.
This might work in git's CVS compatibility mode.
HTH,
Colin S. Miler

I knew about ediff-revision, but didn't realise that it could take a
branch name in the selection dialogue.
Thanks very much!
George.
