How to see word-diff and moved lines?
I use diffr since, it shows small changes in long lines nicely.

Meld is a visual diff and merge tool targeted at developers
For visualization I really like kdiff3. Or on terminal https://github.com/mookid/diffr with specific settings that use 256 colors the highlights word differences as well.
But for manual merging I haven't found anything better than ediff. That's the only reason I install emacs on my work machines. Seemless integration into a text editor is just unbeatable.

Difftastic: Syntax-aware structured diff tool
I wrote diffr [0] for that purpose; it serves me well, especially if your team makes code with long lines.
In my opinion, a simple approach that does NOT make any parsing is more efficient (what about bugs in your parser? code with syntax errors? also, how fast would the parser be?)

Suggestions: A simple human-readable format for suggesting changes to text files
Even simpler:
Step 1: give me your edited `.tex` file.
Step 2: I selectively merge it into mine.
Step 3: There is no step 3.
To selectively merge, I use `meld` https://meldmerge.org/ but there are others.
Benefits of this even simpler approach:
- We continue to use the tools we are used to.
- We and our software don't have to learn a new inline diff format.
- Both files retain valid syntax before and during the selective merge.
- I can choose chunks to accept with a simple mouse click instead of editing a diff chunk.

Ask HN: How do you merge two files with ChatGPT(etc.)?
Why do you need ChatGPT? There are hundreds of diffing tools available that do this quite well. Meld is my favorite: https://meldmerge.org/

Diaphora, the most advanced Free and Open Source program diffing tool
Thanks, just today I daecided that the current status of Meld (https://meldmerge.org/) was untenable for me.
It used to be a fast program, with a reasonable interface.
For a long time now its interface has been "simplifed" following GNOME 3's User Interface Guidelines, and everything ended up being hidden inside a hamburger menu.
But what definitely made it untenable was not the UI, but its tendency to crash and being really slow under the slightest load.
I was considering contributing to the project, but honestly a better engineered alternative would be welcome.
Thanks for the info (and thanks Kai Willadsen for Meld).

Best visual diff and merge tool on macOS?
I’m looking for recommendations for the best visual diff and merge tool available on macOS. I’ve done my research as below but have some reservations about the options I found. - Meld seems to get mentioned a lot but the website syas it is not officially supported on OS X. Are the third party binaries trustworthy? - Beyond Compare is also mentioned but the developer website doesn’t inspire much confidence.

Integrating Git and (Neo)Vim: LazyGit + Fugitive + MergeTool for maxiumum efficiency [Showcase]
So, I use Meld for viewing complex diffs (:silent !meld . &). For interactivity, of course, I use the terminal and Vim, such as lazygit and tig, and fugative and gitgutter (or equivalents).

What a surprise
You bet. (Just copied the text of both into Meld and looked for genuine differences, in case you'd like to have an easy way for the future.) Thanks for doing all that you do here!
