git difftool --tool=vimdiff

I wrote a script that takes two git commits and opens all changed files in vimdiff tabs side by side. I find lots of things too hard to see in github gui. It depends one [tpope's vim-fugitive]. [tpope's vim-fugitive]: https://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive I'll paste it next time I'm on that machine.

I tried to clean it up and put it [on sourcehut] and [on github].

[on sourcehut]: https://git.sr.ht/~jbaber/shadiff

kitty terminal has diff like this builtin https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/kittens/diff/ I use it with darcs diff --diff-command="kitten diff %1 %2"

Nice, I did not know about this! I feel Kitty doesn't get enough love, it's all ghostty this, ghostty that, but Kitty has been my top performing terminal emulator for 10 years now.

I tried looking at the Ghostty homepage & it doesn’t even work without JavaScript so you can’t use a TUI web browser.
