Ingenious!

To me, this seems to be the most useful view if you want to understand a
merge just from the parents and the merge commit. Since you would use
that for individual commits only, the cpu cycles are well spent.

As and added benefit, tr/remerge-diff merges to current next with
conflicts (oid...) so that you get to test it on its own merge!

I haven't reviewed remerge-diff but merged it on top of my own local
additions and ran the full test suite successfully. Any big blocker to
watch out for?
