[egit-dev] Using Gerrit to see diffs between changesets

[Alex Blewitt <alex.blewitt@xxxxxxxxx>]

I spent a while reviewing (and coming up with comments for) this  
changeset:

http://egit.eclipse.org/r/#change,41

However, whilst I was doing that, another one appeared. Is there any  
way to see what (a) files I've seen already, and (b) diffs since the  
last time I saw the changes? It seems that the subsequent changeset  
just shows diffs-against-master, which of course, for new files, is a  
restatement of everything. I'm just wondering if there's a way of  
tracking what's changed since the last one as well as the diff against  
master, and/or be able to see my comments against the previous  
changeset in an easy way so I know what to re-review.

Also, I've seen a few red blobs shown in Gerrit - what are they, and  
should I be commenting on them? I'm guessing that they might be some  
kind of trailing space.

Lastly, it would be good to know whether these level of reviews are  
useful, or if the observational comments are really that interesting.  
For some of them (externalising constants into a separate class,  
exception-based representation of status codes etc.) I think these  
could easily be applied after the branch has been committed to master  
(and then subsequent changesets show them from there) which would at  
least make my life at reviewing them slightly easier ...
