=========

A python diff/patch library supporting unified diffs and native acceleration.

## Features

- Myers diff algorithm

  - Same diff algorithm used by git and the unix diff command

- Native diff implementation

  - Native implementation is 10 times faster than the pure-python version

  - A native patch implementation is unneeded since the patch operation is already very fast

  - Precompiled wheels available for Linux on officially supported python versions

    - Some wheels are made available for Windows and Mac, but there are no guarantees.

- Highly descriptive error messages

- Supports parsing/outputting unified diffs

- Command line interface included

  - Supports recursively diffing/patching entire directory trees
