If you haven't noticed yet, there are two new links on the kernel.org front page: V and VI (View and View Incremental.) Both take you to a diff viewer application and display the full diff and incremental diff (when available), respectively.

Wonderful, thanks! Adding diffstat output would also be very nice so I can easily see if the stuff I'm messing with is or isn't changed,

I think something's wrong. The 'VI' for 2.5.3-pre5 downloads a file called 'patch-2.5.3-pre4-pre5.gz' that is 3940940 bytes. However, 'patch-2.5.3-pre4-pre5.gz' in the Incr directory is list as 628k.

VI downloads a HTML-ized version which is much larger, mostly because it's uncompressed.

Ah, I understand now.
Maybe you could rename the file to 'patch-2.5.3-pre4-pre5.html' then since it's an html file and it's not compressed.

I didn't even notice the cgi script way back there. I wondered why I was the only one confused :(
Thanks.
