On a related note, it has always annoyed me that vc-revert
unconditionally always shows me the diff of the file in question before
letting me revert. Basically every time I use vc-revert, I have already
checked the diff beforehand, so all this does is introduce an annoying
delay when the backend is slow to produce a diff. I'm not aware of a
command-line VCS that show you the diff when you run its revert command,
so I don't see why Emacs should do so.
Anyway, that's why it kills your *vc-diff* buffer - because it assumes
it has just created it. The fix for your problem would presumably be for
vc-revert to only kill the buffer if it did not exist beforehand.
But personally I still wish it would not always insist on showing me the
diff.
