Diff Algorithms Explained
Line-Based Diff
Compares text line by line, ideal for code and structured documents. Shows additions, deletions, and modifications clearly.
Character-Based Diff
More granular comparison at character level. Useful for finding subtle changes in text or single-line content.
Merge Strategies
Different approaches to handling conflicts: automatic merging, manual resolution, or three-way comparison with base version.
Performance Considerations
Large files may require optimized algorithms. Chunk-based comparison improves performance for massive documents.
