Basically the problem is that the 'compare' page always does 'git diff
a...b' which shows the commits in b not in a. What we need is a way to
do arbitrary diffs. A quick look at the gitlab code, it appears changes
will be necessary to:

    https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlab_git/blob/master/lib/gitlab_git/diff.rb#L14-25

to offer a "straight diff" mode.
