New submission from Thomas Arendsen Hein <thomas at intevation.de>:
This is a feature request related to
issue491 (mq: Information loss with --git patches and qrefresh):
After hg qrefresh --git the patch file contains a git patch, but hg qdiff
without --git does not show the extra information. Therefore the user does not
know if the refreshed patch is what he want and has to manually look at
.hg/patches/foo
Not even hg status or identify would help here since it always shows that there
are no modified files after qrefresh, even if the patch loses binary information.
Suggestion:
Make qdiff behavior consistent with qrefresh, i.e. automatically select --git if
the current patch is in git format
