But more big-picture, comparing the output of the old color words and this implementation, there is one thing I don't like: the new one doesn't bring together runs of additions and deletions, which can make parsing text much easier. For example: $ echo This is a complete sentence. >one $ echo Here is some totally different text. >two # with old implementation; /-.../ is red, /+.../ is green $ git diff --color-words one two ... /-This/ /+Here/ is /-a complete sentence./+some totally different text./ # with this patch $ git diff --color-words one two ... /-This/+Here/ is /-a/+some/ /-complete/+totally/ /-sentence./+different text./ -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
