navi VS difftastic

I've built something similar for myself (fzf+a bit of shell). But I realized that fzf's history view (with very long history buffer) works much better for my use case.

I still needed something to cover rare commands with dynamic arguments. That got covered by Navi: https://github.com/denisidoro/navi (takes more friction to add new command than with TBMK, but you get much more organized and easier to search tool).

Similar projects (in a way): navi

navi might help you with that

I like using navi, but idk if you want something that runs in the terminal.

There's also a cli program called tealdeer that does this kind of thing and uses a local cache. And there's a fuzzy search interactive cli cheatsheet program called navi that's also pretty cool (and you can write your own cheatsheets).

I'm using navi[0] for this exact purpose and very happy with it. Now it is one of indispensable tool for my workflow

navi looks for files ending in .cheat with a particular structure. I won't re-hash the entire tutorial from the navi repository since it's quite good and comprehensive, but the TL;DR is:

Semantic Diff is probably the closest for now, although I don't think it uses tree-sitter.

Found via https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic/issues/194.

Yes there is an `—-override` option you can use to specify the language in which a file should be parsed.

Use the fantastic difftastic instead of git's diff. https://difftastic.wilfred.me.uk/

difftastic provides similar capabilities in a free tool based on treesitter

difftastic? https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic

Looks very similar to the treesitter based difftastic, which seems to support more languages and a less problematic business model.

If you're looking for a VS Code extension or a GitHub app, check out https://semanticdiff.com/. I'm a co-founder of this project.

If you prefer a CLI tool, check out https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic. It supports more languages, but doesn't recognize when code has been replaced by an equivalent version ("invariances"). So it will show some changes (e.g. replacing a character in a string with an escape sequence) even though they are technically equivalent.
