[swift-dev] Swift merge commits no diff

[Slava Pestov]

Since a merge commit has two parents you might potentially want to diff against, I'm assuming the tool is not smart enough to know which one is the PR and which one is trunk. Perhaps this is not too hard to fix with some kind of heuristic though.
