Description
icdiff
is an “improved colored diff”, it’s a side-by-side diff that uses colour.
The snap also includes support for running under git, so you can do git icdiff
.
More info on the author’s github.
This release, currently in candidate
, is the first release of the snap that supports git
, and thus is quite a bit more complex than the one in stable
(it’s arch-dependent, as it now includes some compiled code, and can read ~/.gitconfig
and ~/.git/config/git
).
How to install
snap install --candidate icdiff
What to test
icdiff
itself should work, e.g.
icdiff <( echo hi ) <( echo bye )
as well git icdiff
– and the latter should be able to pick up your git configuration including icdiff.options
and your preferred pager.
Note only git-icdiff
is architecture-dependent, so please make sure you test that.
