How to show diff for a rev?

[Menno Smits]

Try the poorly documented -m option to git show, like this:

    git show -m <rev>

For 7360086, this gives exactly the same output as git
diff 7360086^ 7360086.

For 348c104, the output is almost the same as "git diff 348c104^ 348c104"
except there's some additional hunks at the bottom which I haven't spent
much time figuring out where they're from. The additional bits certainly
look related to the change.
