Description

jmhsieh found an issue when doing a diff between a pre-0.96 branch and a post-0.96 branch.

Typically, if the pre-0.96 branch is specified first, and the post-0.96 branch second, the exisitng logic handles it.

When it is in the reverse order, that logic is not handled properly.

The fix should address this.
