-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2025-4d21f1ddd5 2026-01-07 01:56:48.655022+00:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : rust-difftastic Product : Fedora 42 Version : 0.67.0 Release : 1.fc42 URL : https://crates.io/crates/difftastic Summary : Structural diff that understands syntax Description : A structural diff that understands syntax. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Clojure support temporarily disabled pending legal check of its licensing 0.67 (released 16 November 2025) Parsing Added support for protocol buffer files. Updated Ada, Clojure, CMake, Dart, Devicetree, Elisp, Elm, Gleam, HCL, Newick, QML, R, Racket, SQL, Scheme, and Solidity parsers. Improved handling of variable names $foo in shell scripts. Improved detection of YAML files. Diffing Improved subword highlighting for words with hyphens. Display Difftastic is now smarter about calculating the display width for side-by-side diffs. Long lines that are not included in the output no longer affect display. Improved descriptions of changes to binary files. Fixed an issue (introduced after 0.65) where difftastic would not use the full width of the terminal on side-by-side diffs when files had more than 1,000 lines. 0.66 (skipped) Due to an issue with the release process, 0.66 was abandoned in favour of doing a normal release with version 0.67. 0.65 (released 23rd September 2025) Build Increased the default page size of Jemalloc, so difftastic should work on systems with large page sizes (typically aarch64, i.e. Arm). difftastic now requires Rust 1.75 to build. Parsing Updated Clojure, Common Lisp, Rust and Zig parsers. Improved parsing of Kotlin. Text encoding detection is now stricter, fixing more cases where binary files were treated as text. Added the --override-binary option to force files to be treated as binary rather than text. Display When diffing binary files, the file sizes are now shown to help see big changes. 0.64 (released 16th June 2025) Parsing Updated to the latest tree-sitter parser for Erlang, F#, Gleam, Pascal and Swift. File detection is now stricter for UTF-8, and recognises more compression file types as binary (e.g. zstd or bzip2). Added support for Verilog and SystemVerilog. Build CI on GitHub now uses Ubuntu 22.04 for Linux builds (previously Ubuntu 20.04), so prebuilt binaries will require a newer glibc version to run. Internal Difftastic has switched from MiMalloc to Jemalloc for allocation. This is modest performance regression (up to 20% longer runtime in testing). Jemalloc is currently easier to build (see issue #805) and has fewer pathological performance corner cases. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Dec 29 2025 Michel Lind <[email protected]> - 0.67.0-1 - Update to version 0.67.0; Fixes RHBZ#2372928 * Fri Jul 25 2025 Fedora Release Engineering <[email protected]> - 0.63.0-5 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_43_Mass_Rebuild -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #2372928 - rust-difftastic-0.67.0 is available https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2372928 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
