Ooh, I've been wondering how to do that.  (What's this diffc-0.3 thing?)

Also, something I've been doing a lot lately is

mtn automate select b:BRANCH | mtn automate toposort -@ - | tac |
while read rev; do mtn log --last 1 --no-graph --from $rev; done |
less

This shows the log for all revisions in a branch but does not follow
merges from other branches.  ("tac" reverses the order of lines.)
It's handy for reminding oneself what was done on an old branch that
has seen a couple merges from mainline since the last actual change on
the branch.  I'd like to spell this "mtn log --no-follow-merges".
