#42 Enhance diff view with something like icdiff
Closed: Fixed a year ago by wombelix. Opened 8 years ago by pingou.

icdiff has a pretty cool way of showing diff:

https://github.com/jeffkaufman/icdiff

It would be pretty cool if we could do something similar


@pingou, found a similar project https://github.com/ymattw/cdiff , i would like to work on this feature request.

I've found https://docs.python.org/2/library/difflib.html that may be to keep in mind.
It is possible to get characters changes in a same line, something I'm used to get in some other UIs I use.

OKies, we are now using diff2html to do much better diff views on commits. There is also a secret feature for these diffs to enable split view too, for example:

https://pagure.io/pagure/c/775b00677ba3065e563f88eb7f32d0d7e2af36ed?branch=master&splitview

They are not enabled on PR diffs yet, as the inline code comments will need to be re-worked before we can enable it on PR diffs.

The last update was 4 years ago, no further requests, updates or actionable tasks since then. The way diffs are shown was improved already, I'm going to close this issue for now to reduce our backlog.
