Hello,

"vimdiff" doesn't work when the arguments are urls. For example,
"vimdiff /home/user/a.c /home/user/b.c" works, but "vimdiff
file:///home/user/a.c file:///home/user/b.c" doesn't work.

Tested under Linux.

Recognising URLs is the job of the netrw plugin, which (like all plugins) is only sourced at the end of startup.

I think it would work if you started Vim empty, then issued the commands

        :e http://server1/path1/subpath1/file1.c
        :vert diffsplit http://server2/path2/subpath2/file2.c

within the running Vim. (file: URLs can always be simplified to local paths, which Vim can then load with no help from netrw.)


Best regards,
Tony.
