Actually, the submitted branch may be more up-to-date with the trunk
than the dependency. In that case, the changes introduced into trunk
after the dependency merged it will show as changes introduced by the
submitted branch.

Ideally, the diff would be against a version of trunk with the
dependency merged into it.
