Magit-tbdiff provides a Magit interface to git-tbdiff [1] and
git-range-diff, subcommands for comparing two versions of a topic
branch.
There are three commands for creating range diffs:
* `magit-tbdiff-ranges' is the most generic of the three
commands. It reads two ranges that represent the two series to
be compared.
* `magit-tbdiff-revs' reads two revisions. From these (say, "A"
and "B"), it constructs the two series as B..A and A..B.
* `magit-tbdiff-revs-with-base' is like the previous command, but
it also reads a base revision, constructing the range as
..A and ..B.
These commands are available in the transient `magit-tbdiff', which
in turn is available in the Magit diff transient, bound by default
to "i" (for "interdiff" [2]). So, with the default keybindings,
you can invoke the tbdiff transient with "di".
As of v2.19.0, Git comes with the "range-diff" subcommand, an
analog of tbdiff. The option `magit-tbdiff-subcommand' controls
which subcommand is used.
When Magit-tbdiff is installed from MELPA, no additional setup is
needed beyond installing git-tbdiff [1]. The tbdiff transient will
be added under the Magit diff transient, and Magit-tbdiff will be
loaded the first time that the tbdiff transient is invoked.

[2] When I selected that key, I didn't know what an interdiff was
and that what tbdiff refers to as an "interdiff" isn't
technically one. Sorry.
