About the project
A content-aware diff tool that picks a type-specific algorithm per file (code via AST, images, fonts, PDFs, archives) and shows results in a TUI, browser, or headless mode. It integrates with git difftool and editors like VS Code and Neovim.
Useful for
- Review a code change in the TUI with function context shown for each hunk
- Wire OmniDiff into git difftool to replace the default diff viewer
- Run headless mode in CI to get a plain-text diff or JSON output

Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
