MC version diffing broken?

Whilst trying to work out what changed in DockingBarMorph between 4.513297 & the final release of 4.5-13680 I attempted to look at the diffs between to MC versions of Morphic. Boom - #snapshot not understood by nil, which seems to come from some problem in MCVersionHistoryBrowser>snapshotInfoFor:

Re-tried in a vanilla 4.5-13680 image, for other packages, etc. Same issue. Anybody else ?

Do the repositories you have connected to Morphic actually have the
versions you're diffing?

Interesting question. I am assuming that a repository that provides a list of versions ought to actually contain those versions, but perhaps that is not so? ie if I ask a package for history, get a list and then ask for diffs from one version to another why wouldn’t I get either the diffs I asked for or at the very least a warning about something missing for reason X?

Hey, you won't get any argument from me about that! But you and I
seem to be the only ones with that viewpoint.

PS -- It wasn't clear from your note whether you were talking about
"History of a package" or "a repository that provides a list of
versions". You said both, but they're two different things. Either
way, I think all versions should be in teh repositories, but if you're
looking for help diagnosing your immediate issue, less ambiguity would
help immensely.
