Well, I use the diff program as included in my SuSE distribution, either from the command-line, or implicitly from vimdiff (my 'diffexpr' option is empty). I suppose there is nothing extraordinary in this. "diff --version" replies with the following: > diff (GNU diffutils) 2.8.7-cvs > Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc. > License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html> > This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it. > There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. > > Written by Paul Eggert, Mike Haertel, David Hayes, > Richard Stallman, and Len Tower. yast2 tells me that this diffutils package was built Wed 03 Dec 2008 06:00:50 CET and also (among other things) mentions a URL of http://www.gnu.org/software/diffutils/ "ls -l `which diff`" returns -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 87940 2008-12-03 06:00 /usr/bin/diff* where the date is the build date, not the install date (which was several days later). Personally I'm not suprised that this kind of well-defined package has seen no change in half a year.
