Subject: bug#58503: 29.0.50; eshell, with remote pwd, diff between folders doesn't create a *Diff* buffer
Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2022 21:26:09 +0200
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Steps to reproduce:

M-x eshell
cd into a remote directory, for example 'cd /sudo::~/'
compare two existing folders with 'diff a/ b/' or 'diff -r a/ b/'

Eshell prints diff output into the *eshell* buffer instead of displaying
a *Diff* buffer. This isn't an issue in a local pwd.
