Hi,

First, thank you for stepping up again to work on the code review
integration.

From “hg help diffs”:

    While this standard format [unified diff] is often enough, it does
    not encode the following information:

    - executable status and other permission bits
    - copy or rename information
    - changes in binary files
    - creation or deletion of empty files

I’m of the opinion that hg diffs should always use the extended git
format, given their usefulness.  A tool working with hg diffs that does
not support this format is broken IMO.

Regards
