Description

diffsitter creates semantically meaningful diffs that ignore formatting differences like spacing. It does so by computing a diff on the AST (abstract syntax tree) of a file rather than computing the diff on the text contents of the file.

diffsitter uses the parsers from the tree-sitter project to parse source code. As such, the languages supported by this tool are restricted to the languages supported by tree-sitter.

Supported languages: Bash, C#, C++, CSS, Go, Java, OCaml, PHP, Python, Ruby, Rust, Typescript/TSX and HCL

diffsitter is very much a work in progress and nowhere close to production ready (yet). Contributions are always welcome!
