Nearly all of my git knowledge is from possibly wrongheaded stack overflow posts - in this case <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9834689/comparing-two-branches-in-git> where chaiyachaiya said "git diff b1..b2, show you what is in b2 that is not in b1. So git diff b1..b2 and git diff b2..b1 will not have the same output.”
Re-reading that comment I see I missed the next sentence: "On the contrary, git b1...b2, show you what is in b1 XOR b2 (either b1 or b2 but not both). So git b1...b2 is equal to git b2...b1" Shoulda used the triple-dot syntax instead of the double-dot syntax.
