I wonder, why this patch was not considered for fixing issue 3826. I
could see a fix 1081799 which I see very similar to what I have
done. Did I miss anything here?

Thanks and Regards

  2. Display the differences between OLD-TGT as it was seen in OLDREV and
     NEW-TGT as it was seen in NEWREV.  PATHs, if given, are relative to
     OLD-TGT and NEW-TGT and restrict the output to differences for those
     paths.  OLD-TGT and NEW-TGT may be working copy paths or URL[@REV].
     NEW-TGT defaults to OLD-TGT if not specified.  -r N makes OLDREV default
     to N, -r N:M makes OLDREV default to N and NEWREV default to M.

I modified the patch a bit so that conversion to relpath happens only
when user specified new-tgt or old-tgt. In other cases I think it can be
absolute path.

Attached is the modified patch.
