Bug Description

Hi,
when I run
  bzr log -r -2..
I get the text of the last two changes, but when I run
  bzr diff -r -2..
I get the diff from the last commit until now.

for me as a user it looks like an in inconsistence behaviour, usecase:

I contributor tells me he changed some code with his last two commits, so I run bzr log -r -2.. to get his messages, and after this I would like to know what changed, so I run bzr diff -r -2.. and I expect this command to show me the diff of his last two changes, but I only show the changes of the most recent commit.

If this is intended behaviour this difference should be explained in bzr help log and bzr help diff

Markus
