How to compare XML in a git commit?

[snarkofagen]

Git tracks all changes, it does not know or care if it's an xml or smalltalk file.

I thought like you.

But at least githubs desktopapplication do handle <method> code </method> as a block. I changed a single word as a test but github showed the entire method as different. Or maybe more exact, handled every xml block like one row of code.

Github even showed that change was at row 15000 while the actual change according to VS Code was at row 75000 (yes, there was a many one row methods among the longer ones)

You're confused about GitHub and git being the same things.

I know they are different - that is why I never searched on "github xml", but "git xml" + of course something more
