I think if we were going to make it more official, it would make sense to do it inside the diff code itself (i.e., not as a separate script), and it might be reasonable at that point to actually do a "real" character-based diff rather than the hacky prefix/suffix thing (or possibly even integrate with the color-words patterns to find syntactically interesting breaks). There is some discussion in the "Bugs" section of contrib/diff-highlight/README. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
