gix-diff v0.38.0

on GitHub

New Features

• add blob::Platform and blob::Pipeline for diff-content conversions and caching.
  The Pipeline provides ways to obtain content for use with a diffing algorithm,
  and the Platform is a way to cache such content to efficiently perform MxN matrix
  diffing, and possibly to prepare running external diff programs as well.

• provider new rename-tracking faciliites.
  They generalize reneame tracking to the point where it can work for different
  kinds of changes.

  There is still some way to go until it is truly correct though, as it still
  lacks worktree conversions and diff filters.

Bug Fixes

• assure binary-detection also works if ODB files are below the big-file threshold.

Changed (BREAKING)

• use gix-object::Find trait

New Features (BREAKING)

• rewrite-tracker now uses blob diff-platform for correct and optimized diffing.
  Correctness is improved as all necessary transformation are now performed.
  Performance is improved by avoiding duplicate work by caching transformed
  diffable data for later reuse.
