Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve
When using /diff in branch mode, the base branch is auto-detected as the default branch of the tracking remote (e.g., origin/main ). There's no way to override this - if your branch was cut from something other than the default branch, the diff includes noise from the parent branch rather than just your changes.
Proposed solution
Allow specifying a base branch when using branch diff mode - e.g., a text input when selecting "Branch diff", or a parameter like /diff base=feature/xyz . This would let users diff against any branch, not just the remote default.
Example prompts or workflows
- Working on a branch cut from
feature/parent - want to see only changes since that branch, not since main
- Comparing work against a release branch rather than the repo default
