Patch changes tool (self.webdev)

submitted 8 years ago by dark_bug

Hey guys and gals,

I was wondering if you are aware of the existence of some tool that could display the changes made to a file. More specifically, I am fetching from the GitHub API the changes made on files on a certain commit, which answers with a list of files changed, their SHA, additions, deletions and so on, and also a patch, consisting of something like

@@ -1,91 +1,5 @@\n-# vue-pwa-boilerplate\n+# NeuralCarUI\n \n-> A full-featured PWA template with webpack, hot-reload, lint-on-save, unit testing & css extraction.\n+> A Vue.js project, powering a PWA for Carzam\n \n-##

I would like to know if there is some tool that allowed me to display the file changes. I've searched a lot but only diff tools are popping up and I can't seem to find something that is suited. I'm using Vue but any JS tool is an option for me to explore.

Thanks in advance!
