Full Release Notes
Difftastic is a structural diff tool that understands syntax. See [the manual](https://difftastic.wilfred.me.uk/) to get started, and [the changelog](https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) for historical changes. ### Git Support Fixed an issue where git with difftastic would terminate with `fatal: external diff died` when there was an unmerged path. ### Parsing Updated Bash, C, Go, Lua, Nix, Perl, Python, Rust, Scala, Swift and YAML parsers. Fixed an issue with parsing raw string literals in Rust. ### Build Difftastic now requires Rust 1.77 or later to build. Difftastic no longer uses jemalloc on any Windows builds. Previously jemalloc was only disabled for MSVC. ### Command Line Interface Improved error reporting when invoked with an invalid number of arguments. ### Display Fixed an issue with inline display where it didn't always respect the value of --context. Fixed an issue with side-by-side rendering when files contain tabs.
