Difftastic is a structural diff tool that understands syntax. See the manual to get started, and the changelog for historical changes.

Parsing

Improved CSS parsing and HTML sublanguage parsing.

Diffing

Added an --ignore-comments option.

Improved textual diffing performance, particularly when the two files have few lines in common.

Display

Fixed an issue with unwanted underlines with textual diffing when DFT_BYTE_LIMIT is reached.

Fixed a crash in inline display when the file ends with whitespace.

Build

Renamed the vendored parser directory to vendored_parsers/, as cargo vendor would clobber the vendor/ directory.
