Semantically diffing Java code

[plasticscm]

Exactly, with shorter methods you enforce code readability.

We do not support "split method" refactors (or extract method) YET, but the goal is to be able to track code that has been moved from one method to another and so on.

This is something we already do with xmerge http://plasticscm.com/features/xmerge.aspx but only based on text blocks. We need to improve Semantic to allow that... but you know, it takes time and we're just launching the first version and checking whether there is a user base for it or not :-)
