My kneejerk reaction to this is would be:
Please don't grow diff.[ch] even more. It has
5k lines which is a lot IMHO. Although it might be
ok for the compiler and from a logical point of view,
I'd rather prefer to deal with lots of small files, than
with such large files. I am undecided if this hints at
bad tooling on my side or at how I think of code
and their location.
I guess it is ok for now and in this series, but we may want
to split up diff.[ch] in the future into multiple finer grained files.
Thanks,
Stefan
