Simple diff functionality about vundo HOT 5 CLOSED

Picking this back up. It would be nice to (m)ark a node (or (u)nmark it), navigate around using the normal vundo nav functions, then (d)iff between the marked and current node (by default, the prior node, as above). I can take a look.

This is implemented in #78.

Oh Cool! I guess it can be useful when you couldn't tell what was changed in an undo. You can use undo-hl but this is another way. I'll see what I can come up with when I find som time. Thanks!

Yeah especially for "big" diffs like copying in a bunch of changes from another version, or a complex find/replace, it really helps. I probably use it 1 in 20 times I invoke vundo. Compared to undo-tree, I actually find I prefer the diff not to change as I move around nodes, i.e. only when invoked. That said, it would be very nice to highlight the node from which diff was invoked in some way. I.e. add another overlay that does vundo--highlight-node but in diff-header face color.

One thing I didn't quite figure out was what (vundo--refresh-buffer orig (current-buffer) 'incremental) really does, so I sprinkled them in until it worked ;). Probably this could be streamlined.

This would be great for my workflow. Thanks.
