This doesn't work with such customization:

  (add-hook 'diff-mode-hook 'rename-uniquely)

because this change assumes that the current buffer is always "*vc-diff*"
whereas the reverted buffer can be "*vc-diff*<2>".

Isn't the reverted buffer always current during revert-buffer command?
If this assumption is correct, how about his fix?
