Riff VS Diff So Fancy

Ohh I've not heard of riff, I'll need to check that out. Thanks for the heads up! https://github.com/walles/riff. Source: over 1 year ago

I don't know about those features specifically, but lately I've been enjoying riff, and some other options I can think of are. Source: almost 2 years ago

The diff itself is impressive, but in terms of styling I still prefer diff-so-fancy[1]. It's easier to read at a glance. [1]: https://github.com/so-fancy/diff-so-fancy/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

This is actually one that's really easy to write and remember but I hate typing and I run it all the time, so I've aliased it down to gd for git-diff. Also I use diff-so-fancy to make the output of my diffs look frickin sweet and I suggest you do the same. - Source: dev.to / 12 months ago

I recommend a tool like diff-so-fancy with some custom colors. You will never want to go back to vanilla diffs. Source: about 1 year ago

Ok, thanks, diff-so-fancy is a good solution for me. Source: about 1 year ago

I just discovered diff-so-fancy, and very nice it is too. I immediately added it to my standard git config, which is semi-automatically installed on every machine I use. However, I've not (yet) installed diff-so-fancy on all the machines I use, and for those platforms for which it's not packaged I probably won't bother installing it from source. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago
