Try the "Enhanced Diff"/"Patience Diff" plugin by Christian Brabandt: https://github.com/chrisbra/vim-diff-enhanced Unfortunately there is not (yet) any way to add manual diff alignments and other advanced features due to limitations in Vim itself, but at least you can try a few alternate diff algorithms from the above plugin. :-) -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
