I guess the other question to ask is how many of us have a project
with a branch named "undo”?

Branches don’t enter into it.  The proposal was for “diff --undo”,
not “diff undo”.

An early suggestion from either Stephen or D.R. Hipp was to name the feature either "diff --from-undo" or "diff --from undo" as clearer than "diff --undo". Allowing "--from undo" implies treating "undo" in that context (and perhaps other commands too) as a special name, which would have the small downside of making access to a branch (or just a tagged checkin) named "undo" harder.

I personally think that "diff --from undo" is the best of all the proposals floated in this thread, and tend to assume that "undo" is an unlikely branch or tag name.
