I believe there is a bug report against Mercurial to include the base revision even in git-style diffs, not sure what the status is. git itself includes the base revision in its diffs; I believe that Mercurial didn't dare to use the same syntax since the Mercurial hash wouldn't be a valid git hash.

I believe there is a bug report against Mercurial to include the base
revision even in git-style diffs, not sure what the status is. git itself
includes the base revision in its diffs; I believe that Mercurial didn't
dare to use the same syntax since the Mercurial hash wouldn't be a valid
git hash.
