git clone https://github.com/cablehead/record-diff.nu ./record-diff
"ready:\nuse record-diff"
}
```
## Update
```nushell
do {
# Locate the current install
$NU_LIB_DIRS | default [] | append $env.NU_LIB_DIRS? | each { path join "record-diff" } | where { path exists } | first | cd $in
# And update
git pull
}
```
