bug#52242: 29.0.50; Feature Request: Offer to run`diff-buffer-with-file'


From: Visuwesh
Subject: bug#52242: 29.0.50; Feature Request: Offer to run`diff-buffer-with-file' in `recover-this-file' prompt
Date: Thu, 2 Dec 2021 13:28:24 +0100 (CET)

`recover-this-file' quite helpfully shows the time of creation of the
auto-save file.  However, this is not always enough to decide whether I
should recover from said auto-save file since there's no way of knowing
if the changes in auto-save file are desirable [1] so I end up answering
yes, then run `diff-buffer-with-file' anyway.  I think having a
`diff-buffer-with-file' option like `save-some-buffers' would be a
quality-of-life improvement.

Thanks.
[1] I fat finger my keyboard quite a lot and end up garbling the file
even after explicitly saving the buffer.  When I open the file in a new
Emacs session again, I get suggested to `recover-this-file' and 8/10
times, I have to undo.  Having a diff option directly in the prompt
would save some keystrokes.
