What is the best way to do a code review across multiple commits, with TortoiseHg?

Question

The problem that I'm running into is that I have some code reviews to do, with ~10 commits per review. It's an active repo with constant commits from developers. I have TortoiseHg filtering my changesets so that I am looking only at the ones that I care about.

What I would like to see is the difference between the changeset before the first change, and the last (without all the non-related changesets showing). I simply want to see the final results of all these changes. I don't care that there was some horrible code in changeset 1, that was fixed in 3. I just want to see the diff of what ultimately got merged through all these changesets.

I feel like I'm missing the obvious, and this isn't a bright question. Nevertheless, I'm asking anyways. Anyone?

Answer 1

I'm not sure about 1.1.8, as I'm using the 1.9/2.0 candidate release, but I believe you could left-click on changeset1, right-click on revision3 and select visual Diff. This should open your diff tool of choice and only show you the diffs between the 2 versions.

When I did this in the newer tortoise, it opened BeyondCompare in directory compare mode, with revision1 on one side, and revision2 on the other.
