git diff --no-index left right
git diff --no-index --raw left right
This eliminates a bunch of code, gets us much better diffs and lots more options. The one downside is that we have to invoke
git difftool
with--no-symlinks
. This means that you can't make changes to unstaged files after runninggit webdiff
and reload to see the changes. This is a fundamental issue with howgit diff --no-index
handles symlinks, see https://public-inbox.org/git/1489877673.24742.1.camel@kaarsemaker.net/t/I also took the opportunity to update a few dependencies and plug in a system for options using
.gitconfig
