Bug Description

It would be nice if the main page of a merge request for which the diff has not been generated yet could show an indication of this.

I've seen merge requests with diffs before, but I wasn't aware that the diff was generated asynchronously. Because of this I assumed that, when I created a merge request and no diff appeared, there was something broken. A simple message saying "A diff for this merge request is being generated and will appear in a few minutes..." would suffice to avoid this problem.

The list of recent revisions in Bazaar branches are also updated asynchronously, and the message displayed there announcing that the list of recent revisions will be updated soon is quite useful.
