  1. Since y'all liked 🔀🦒 #Mergiraf so much (a syntax-aware #git #merge driver that solves many conflicts automatically that git's built-in merge strategies can't), go check out ≏🤩 #Difftastic too! It's a syntax-aware #diff tool that produces finer grained, much easier to read output than classic #GNU #diffutils or #BSD diff. No more decoding "@@ -5,6 +5,7 @@"! Integrates nicely with #git as well.
