From: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>
"zdiff3" is identical to ordinary diff3 except that it allows compaction
of common lines on the two sides of history at the beginning or end of
the conflict hunk. For example, the following diff3 conflict:
1
2
3
4
<<<<<<
A
B
C
D
E
||||||
5
6
======
A
X
C
Y
E
>>>>>>
7
8
9
has common lines 'A', 'C', and 'E' on the two sides. With zdiff3, one
would instead get the following conflict:
1
2
3
4
A
<<<<<<
B
C
D
||||||
5
6
======
X
C
Y
>>>>>>
E
7
8
9
Note that the common lines, 'A', and 'E' were moved outside the
conflict. Unlike with the two-way conflicts from the 'merge'
conflictStyle, the zdiff3 conflict is NOT split into multiple conflict
regions to allow the common 'C' lines to be shown outside a conflict,
because zdiff3 shows the base version too and the base version cannot be
reasonably split.
