Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

229 Linux Commands with Examples
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 like flatpaks, have a few dozen of them installed, but damn those updates are massive
man command & -h/--help flags & tealdear

bashrc inspiration - your favorit trick
My new found love is tealdeer + fzf and this alias:
-
man sed
This is a nice tool for shortened man pages.

Linus Torvalds adds arbitrary tabs to kernel code
i want a diff tool that shows me exactly which tokens have changed, and which haven't, regardless of how they are laid out.
These already exist: https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic
when we get that, then we should get even less merge conflicts.
Counterintuitively, that is not the case. AST-merge is a much, much, much, much, much harder problem than AST-diff.
https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic?tab=readme-ov-file#can...
The fact that diffs can be used to drive a 3-way merge is in fact an accidental property that arises due to the sheer crudeness of the diff format. As soon as you start using more-sophisticated diff formats, solutions to "the diff problem" no longer lead directly to solutions to "the merge problem".

Difftastic, a structural diff tool that understands syntax
Yes there is an `—-override` option you can use to specify the language in which a file should be parsed.

Prettier $20k Bounty was Claimed
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 It supports more languages, but doesn't recognize when code has been replaced by an equivalent version ("invariances").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.

Pijul: Version-Control Post-Git • Goto 2023
Shameless plug: I've written difftastic[1], a tool that builds ASTs and then does a structural diff of them. You can use it with git too.
It's an incredibly hard problem though, both from a computational complexity point of view, and trying to build a comprehensible UI once you've done the structural AST diff.

Always leave a trailing comma in Python lists, dicts, tuples
There is a diff tool called difftastic: https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic
The idea is that it does not show diff based on text change, but on syntastic meaning. For that, it uses tree-sitter.
I think it still shows the trailing comma in the situation as shown in the article, but it's quite different experience than the standard text based diff.
What are some alternatives?
tldr - 📚 Collaborative cheatsheets for console commands
delta - A syntax-highlighting pager for git, diff, and grep output
cheat - cheat allows you to create and view interactive cheatsheets on the command-line. It was designed to help remind *nix system administrators of options for commands that they use frequently, but not frequently enough to remember.
diffsitter - A tree-sitter based AST difftool to get meaningful semantic diffs
grub-btrfs - Include btrfs snapshots at boot options. (Grub menu)
neogit - An interactive and powerful Git interface for Neovim, inspired by Magit
cheat.sh - the only cheat sheet you need
Visual Studio Code - Visual Studio Code
updog - Updog is a replacement for Python's SimpleHTTPServer. It allows uploading and downloading via HTTP/S, can set ad hoc SSL certificates and use http basic auth.
gumtree - An awesome code differencing tool
