Partial support for the \n[an-margin] number register.

Manuals autogenerated from reStructuredText are reckless enough
to peek at this non-portable, implementation-dependent, highly
groff-specific internal register - for no good reason, because the
man(7) language natively provides in a much simpler way what they
are trying to emulate here with much fragility.

A full implementation would be very hard because it would require
access to output-device-specific formatting data at the roff(7)
preprocessor stage, which mandoc doesn't support at all.
So hardcode a few magic numbers as reStructuredText expects them
for terminal output.  For other output modes (like HTML), code using
this register is utterly broken anyway.

This form allows you to request diff's between any two revisions of a file. You may select a symbolic revision name using the selection box or you may type in a numeric name using the type-in text box.
