The PR #2930 adds semantic highlighting to the Java compare/merge viewer, which works for the EGit Revision side (using JavaMergeViewer / CompilationUnitEditorAdapter).
However, the Local History compare editor still lacks semantic highlighting. When comparing a file with its local history, the editor only shows basic syntax coloring (keywords, strings, comments) without the richer highlighting (method names, type references, local variables, fields, type parameters, annotations, etc.).
This is a follow-up to #2929 to extend semantic highlighting support to the Local History compare editor as well.
