# dmp

The Diff Match and Patch libraries offer robust algorithms to perform the operations required for synchronising plain text. This repository contains a Rust version of the original [diff-match-patch](https://github.com/google/diff-match-patch) library, using up-to-date crate packages.

#### Features

- Diffing and patching library for plain text

- Retrieve differences between two blocks of text

- Create a set of patches for converting a block of text into another

- Apply a set of patches onto a block of text to convert it to another block of text

- Uses best-effort to apply patch even when the underlying text doesn't fully match.

#### Fuzzing

A fuzzer is provided as a sanity-check:

```console

RUST_BACKTRACE=1 cargo fuzz run fuzz

```
