Which CLI offers this? Remember: we are not talking about specific implementations of a system like git, we are defining requirements :-)

For example with links on the webpage of ripe-XXX. The web page of ripe-554 contains a link 'Updates: ripe-501'. Adding a link 'Compare to ripe-501' would be very useful.

I understand, but we need to specify that without specifying the tool to do it with. That's how you build requirements ;-)
