In as such, I hope you do not misunderstand me in the following, but I have serious doubts about the necessity of the package you propose. Maybe you could try to help me understand? There is no git-diffstat or darcs-diffstat or svn-diffstat, but there is diffstat in patchutils. True to the Unix-spirit, it plugs in to all of these tools thanks to pipes. Is there a reason why bzr needs to have its own solution? Wouldn't it be enough to define an alias 'diffstat' that just does 'diff|diffstat'?
