Currently in qgit you can select a revision + a file and call an
external diff viewer, as example Kompare (tweakable from
'Edir->settings->External diff viewer' menu) to view the diff
side-by-side, or in any other way the viewer allows, for the selected
file.
I like also the idea to hide the negative side but I would rather
prefer a togglable command/button instead of a command line argument
or a setting, so to allow easy and quick hide/unhide on the same
patch.
I will work on it..... ;-)
I have pushed a patch with support for toggling view of the negative
side of an unified diff (right most 'filter' button in patch viewer
tab or CTRL+H shortcut).
In case someone is interested repo is, as usual,
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/qgit/qgit.git

P.S: Another two useful shortcuts are the hide/unhide of revision
description header ('h' key or from 'View' menu) and hide/unhide of
secondary panes ('s' key or from 'View' menu) they work in all the
different tabs.
