Hi,
90e6ef5 makes 502 additions/deletions, so it scales the +- part to the
whole available terminal width. 90e6ef5^ does only 41 additions, so it
can display the +- part unscaled without even filling the terminal width.

Since we don't coordinate the diffstat width between different commits
in the same git-log invocation, there's no way to make the diffstats use
the same scale. Anyway, diffstat is only supposed to give a rough
overview, and it does that here.

What output would you expect?
