The goal of this package is to be a dropped in replacement for the [diffutils commands](https://www.gnu.org/software/diffutils/) in Rust.
Based on the incomplete diff generator in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/tools/compiletest/src/runtest.rs, and made to be compatible with GNU's diff and patch tools.
