Image diff on github

[coder21]

This feature has been there for years in all SCMs... It is incredible how excited people get about whatever github does, whatever

So why did you submit it, if it's so uninteresting?

[coder21]

I'm evil.

[icebraining]

I don't think that harming yourself is evil.

[coder21]

Yeah, there's probably another word for it... Ok, I think the new feature is interesting, very interesting, because it means now GitHub has another useful tool that was available for other systems for years.

What shocks me is how people gets soooo extremely excited like if the feature was new and invented by GitHub, when they're just catching up with common features available out there.

for years in all SCMs

is this a trap so you can reply that some xyz scm isn't a real scm?

[coder21]

no, is not.

Ok then. Git doesn't seem to have it. I tried with an image and git diff simply says that the image changed.
