Hi Shérab,

IIRC it is displaying 2 column html diffs (yellow/green) instead of a
simple text diff (like on the console).

IIRC, it is only on the web.

We do not send html emails, just text.

Well, the diff is just using the text data as you entered it. If you
just enter all text in one line, diff will see that as one line. If
that's a problem, you could hit ENTER now and then, do hard format the
paragraph in the wiki markup text. The output will still be a single
paragraph (it only splits paragraphs if you hit ENTER 2 times).

Isn't there also a URL (link) in the email, so you could just view the
fancy diff on the web, it should be better visible there.

Cheers,

Thomas
