🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

so python3-unidiff is a tool for processing unified diff data. unified diffs!! the ---/+++/@@ situation, you know the one 👑

it can read diff data from a file or from standard input, and then — only if you want it to — optionally output the diff to stdout. no cap.

basically: diff data goes in, processed diff data comes out. main character energy fr fr 💖

👑 OPTIONS 👑

  • -h, --help — show this help message and exit. the classic. the icon. the "bestie I'm lost" button 🥺
  • --show-diff — output the diff to stdout. you want the diff shown? she'll show it 💅
  • -f, --file _DIFF_FILE_ — read diff data from the specified file. and if you don't specify one? she reads diff data from stdin instead. no file, no problem, she's flexible like that 🌈
