History for ways doesn't show tag changes

[midgard]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Select a way that had tag changes, e.g. ​https://osm.org/way/158601617.
2. Optionally, change tags on it.
3. Press Ctrl+H to view history.
4. Select a diff (by clicking the changeset's line, by clicking the radio buttons or by using the keyboard).

What is the expected result?

You should see the correct diff between old tag revisions.

What happens instead?

All uploaded versions are treated as if they had the same tags of the most recent uploaded version.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible.

Faulty history viewer (for correct revisions, see ​https://osm.org/way/158601617/history)

The problem only occurs for ways, not for nodes or relations.

It seems that the data delivered by the api is incorrect:
​https://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/way/158601617/history

Yes, it seems it's an issue with the API, as I did some testing all the way back to r13879 (released May 31st, 2018), and was getting the incorrect tag history. Pretty sure somebody before now would have noticed this issue if it was a pure JOSM issue. My guess is either the OSM API is having a brain fart, or it was updated (haven't been keeping track) and JOSM is having an issue with it now. That's about all I can add on this issue.

The problem was in the api and was fixed now.
