Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #gitdiff, aggregated by home.social.

  1. I. CORRECTIONS:

    (1) The notation has square brackets for the old version:
    [-old-]{+new+}
    —I made several typos in the original post.

    (2) The incantation is `git diff --word-diff=plain'.

    II. NOTES:

    (a) There is also --word-diff-regex="." marking differences at single character granularity.

    (b) Sometimes I run `git diff' directly from the command line and sometimes from another environment, such as Emacs.
    The defaults may vary.
