I think Will's case is still an easy one compared with what could
actually happen.
The related history looks as follows:
,-. ,-. ,-. ,-. ,-.
v5.4-rc1 --| |-...-| |-- v5.4-rc2 --| |-..-| |-..-| |-- v5.4-rc3
\ `-' `-' \ `-' /-' `-'
\ ,-. ,-. \ ,-/ ,-. ,-.
`--| |-...-| |--------------------|*|----| |-...-|H|
`-' `-' \ `-' `-' /-'
\ ,-. ,-. /
`--| |-...-| |-----'
`-' `-'
Will asked Linus to merge the Commit marked 'H', the two merge bases are
v5.4-rc2 and '*'.
(FTR:
* = 3e7c93bd04edfb0cae7dad1215544c9350254b8f
H = 777d062e5bee0e3c0751cdcbce116a76ee2310ec
, they can be found in
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git)
The formally correct way to create the diffstat is to merge v5.4-rc2 and
'*' (in general: all merge bases) and calculate the diff between this
merge and the to-be-merged-commit. Compared to what Will did (i.e. merge
Linus' HEAD and this branch and then diff @~ with @) doing it the way I
described has the advantage(?) that commits that conflict with this
merge request in Linus' tree since the merge bases are not in the way.
In this case this can be done automatically:
$ git read-tree --index-output=tralala v5.4-rc2 3e7c93bd04edfb0cae7dad1215544c9350254b8f
$ GIT_INDEX=tralala git write-tree
6a2acfd1870d9da3c330ea9b648a7e858b5ee39f
$ git diff --stat 6a2acfd1870d9da3c330ea9b648a7e858b5ee39f 777d062e5bee0e3c0751cdcbce116a76ee2310ec

Would be great if git-request-pull learned to do that.
Best regards
