Eclipse Community ForumsQuick diff bug?
https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/331002/846169/#msg_846169
after saving a file, quick diff disappears. As reference I have "A Git Revision" setting under General->Editors->Text Editors->Quick Diff
is this a bug? I'd like to see all changes compared to HEAD
Regards

Speaking of these reference options, is there some reason why the Git option isn't called "Git HEAD revision"? "A Git Revision" seems pointlessly vague. Or is there some way I don't know about to make Git quick-diff be relative to a Git reference other than HEAD?

The easiest fix is to remove the projects from the workspace and re-import them, either with "File -> Import -> Git - > Projects from Git", or by adding your local clone to the Git Repositories view and then running "Import Projects..." from the right-click menu of the newly added repository entry.]]>R Shapiro2012-04-16T20:39:17-00:00Re: Quick diff bug?

No one responded to this but I just stumbled over the answer: the right-click menu of commits in a History list includes "Quick Diff -> Set as Baseline". So that's apparently how the Quick Diff can be relative to something other than HEAD.
Yet another useful but somewhat hidden egit feature to add my egit notes.
