py3-patiencediff-0.2.14 – Python implementation of the patiencediff algorithm (cvsweb github mirror)

Description

This package contains the implementation of the patiencediff algorithm, as
first described by Bram Cohen.

Like Python's difflib, this module provides both a convience unified_diff
function for the generation of unified diffs of text files as well as a
SequenceMatcher that can be used on arbitrary lists.

Patiencediff provides a good balance of performance, nice output for humans,
and implementation simplicity.

The code in this package was extracted from the Bazaar code base.

The package comes with two implementations:

- A Python implementation (_patiencediff_py.py); this implementation only
  requires a Python interpreter and is the more readable version of the two.
- A C implementation (_patiencediff_c.c); this implementation
  is faster, but requires a C compiler and is less readable.

It may also be called from the command line:
- python3 -m patiencediff file_a file_b
