All things considered, for single commit view there is (modulo bugs)
no factual difference between plain diff and patch view.

Although we could merge them, I'm thinking that the plain diff view
has somewhat too much information in it. For backwards compatibility
it's probably not wise to change it, but we should consider it for the
next major version, honestly.

I had half an idea to do so. 'patches' or 'patchset'?

Ah, good point.

Hm, not easy to solve. One way could be to add the hash_parent
manually. Or we could make the 'patches' view different from the
'patch' view in the way it handles refspecs without ranges. I'm
leaning towards the latter. What's your opinion?

The actual reason is that I never use log nor history view, but since
they don't support hash_parent because of this (I was the one who sent
the patch to support hash_parent in shortlog view) you could
paralogistically say that's the reason ;-)

I'm not sure about history view, but for log view I'm considering
addiong also a 'patch' link next to each commit. I'll think about it.
