patiencediff

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

Like Python's difflib, this module provides both a convenience 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, and ported to rust.
