format=TEXT for +diff handler #55

Probably would be base64 encoded. This would allow web-based tools to get the 
diff content without needing to parse the HTML

What do you mean by "web based tools? You want to embed this in an iframe or 
something?

Also just curious, why do you prefer text to json?

Json would be fine too. The tool in question is actually doing processing of 
the diffs to correlate stack traces with patches.

web based as in -> doesn't have a local checkout

If it were in text the format would be the same as the output of "git diff", 
i.e. mostly standard Unix patch format (plus base64 encoding), so do you have a 
tool that is capable of understanding that already? If it were in JSON...not 
sure yet.

Also what's your timeline like?

Timeline would probably be like 2-3 months or so. It's not urgent, but we 
should probably have it before we start trying to import BeautifulSoup or 
something

And, yes, we have tools to understand diff
