Honggyu, For case 2: Why not just rebase the Tag-B..Tag-A (which is all the commits that in the Tag-B release that are not in the Tag-A release (i.e. between Tag-B and the merge-base (branching point between) of Tag-A and Tag-B.
You can rebase that series '--onto Tag-A' and Git, in the main will detect which commits are duplicates and ignore them, and do all the usual merge stuff for each of those commits in the series. You can use the 'gitk' viewer with those log command options to select the part you want to see (which is likely 'gitk Tag-A...Tag-B &' using the three dot notation to show both sides).

Hi all, I'm planing to do some back-porting work so I would like to see the diff commits between two tags, let's say tag-A and tag-B. There can be two cases: Case 1. If tag-A and tag-B are in a single branch and tag-B is more recent one. This is obvious. tag-B is based on tag-A and has some only additional commits. Case 2. If tag-A and tag-B are in different branches and those are developed in parallel. There can be some additional and also missing commits between tag-A and tag-B. Can anyone please let me know how to pick those additional and missing commits in Case 2?
