Documentation

Overview

Package diff provides a memory-safe unified diff computation.

Index

Constants

View Source 
const MaxLines = 75_000

MaxLines is the maximum total number of lines (old + new) for which a full structural diff is computed. Beyond this the diff is summarized because no human can meaningfully review it and the algorithmic cost becomes prohibitive.

Variables

Functions

func Compute 

func Compute(previousData, newData []byte) (string, error)

Compute returns a unified diff (without the --- / +++ header) between two byte slices. For inputs whose combined line count exceeds MaxLines it returns a short summary instead.
