git: inline diffs with --word-diff! (intermediate) anthony explains

today I show a tiny tip when working with patches in `git` (such as with `git diff` or `git log -p`) to show inline differences instead of full line differences

also you can use something like diff-so-fancy which shows word changes by default and is easy as "git diff | diff-so-fancy"

This is cool, I am using whole new diff tool to achieve this, which is a overkill

[@mrswats]

That's a very nice little trick to keep in mind! Very useful stuff.

I wanted to ask about namespaces. is using classes for namespaces good? can i call this code clean? or maybe there is another analogs for these kind of things? Of course, i mean situation, where i need to have another namespace in same file, so i dont have to make a lot of modules or other situations, where this can make code more simple and readable. Or python modules, packages and classes cover all possible needs in namespaces, and if there is no obvious solution using these means that my code is dirty?

[@anthonywritescode]

there's no such thing as clean code. don't worry about it. do what makes sense for you

[@greob]

I recommend using git-delta which is pretty good at highlighting things in diff patches.

[@a_maxed_out_handle_of_30_chars]

true, works like a charm

[@0x255]

delta has no support for word-diff

[@djchainz]

Yes but by default it does its own thing highlighting the in-line removals/additions with a stronger background colour. I find that more readable than --word-diff, though it's not customizable. @@0x255

[@qexat]

That's cool! I wonder why word diff is not the default though

[@sadhlife]

when you edit code you add/remove statements usually, for those word diff can be very noisy.

What is the difference between the Asyncio vs ThreadPoolExecutr.

[@uccoskun]

hello, can you show an example of comparing two microsoft word documents, please?

[@anthonywritescode]

I would not recommend doing that

[@ClaytonAAlves]

git diff --color-words
