//! Functions to find the difference between to texts (strings).
//! Usage
//! ----------
//!
//! Add the following to your Cargo.toml:
//!
//! ```toml
//! [dependencies.text_diff]
//!
//! git = "https://github.com/johannhof/text-diff.rs.git"
//! ```
//!
//! Now you can use the crate in your code
//!
//! ```ignore
//! extern crate text_diff;
//! ```

#![crate_name = "text_diff"]
#![doc(html_root_url = "https://johannhof.github.io/text-diff.rs/")]

// I can basically feel the karma already
#![deny(missing_docs)]
