GNU diff and git diff - difference on myers algorithm?

2015-06-08 Thread Luis R. Rodriguez
Based on a cursory review of the git code I get the impression that GNU diff and git 'diff' do not share any code for the possible diff algorithms. I'm in particularly curious more about the default myers algorithm. I can take time to do a precise code review of the algorithms used on both GNU
