Bug#237323: Diff output should be piped to pager
(Triaging old bugs.)
Although I agree the default should probably use a pager, for what it's
worth, this can be set in the config file as well. The 'diff' variable
controls what command is used to diff. By default, it is,
diff = diff -u CURRENT2 CURRENT1
(CURRENT1 and CURRENT2 are magic strings replaced with the two
filenames.)
You could change this to,
diff = diff -u CURRENT2 CURRENT1 | pager
