anatoly techtonik <techto...@gmail.com> added the comment: It is not a diff replacement. Its output, as David noted, is not a diff output format and can not be reliably parsed due to issue7585 and issue7582 combination.
For being a diff replacement it will have to get rid of .py extension and gain a dozen of options. Such as --normal, -p, -w, -q, -r etc. Without these options diff.py can not be considered diff replacement. This script is more useful on its own, providing reasonable defaults for a cross-platform way of making patches for Python users. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8355> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
