when using vimdiff how do I find the bottom of a block of changes

Question

When using vimdiff there are times that I want to select a change, not just the top line of the change. what I've been doing is manually positioning the cursor at the bottom of the change and then using a macro which does a

V[c{command such as y or d}

. I Would like to extend my macro to do something more along the lines of

/pattern/(in change)^M(find last line  in change)V[cd

. Any advice or related information (i.e. diff specific addresses) you have would be appreciated. thanks

Why do you want to select a change in the first place? – romainl Nov 15 '13 at 21:24 — romainl, Nov 15 '13 at 21:24

My diffwindow_movement plugin provides [C and ]C motions that go to the end of a change, and also an ic "inner change" text object to select / operate on it.
