I work on projects with two mainline branches: main (default/HEAD) and release.
Ness will default to diffing against main even if the branch is based on release, resulting in an inflated diff.
It would be great to be able to set the branch base for the diff, or even set it automatically. For example, we encode it in a .branch-base file.
And it would also be helpful to have an option to autoprefix it with origin/.
