Implementation of the patiencediff algorithm, as first described by Bram Cohen: https://bramcohen.livejournal.com/73318.html 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.
