Yes, its already there in the 1.1.0 release. Show log for the single
file, select any 2 revs, right click and select show diffs.

Either you are using an older version, or you are showing the log for a
folder.

The bottom pane shows the files which changed in one particular rev, and
looking at the differences will reveal the changes made in that one rev
only.

I think if multiple revs are selected, the middle and lower panes should
be blank, because it is unclear which of the selected revs they apply
to, so maybe this is a bug.
