 #1

Updated by Luke Mauldin over 4 years ago

Is there a way to change the git diff algorithm that is used? With standard git, I can update the algorithm by updating ~/.gitconfig and adding a section like:

[diff]
    algorithm = histogram

Does rhodecode support anything similar? If I just update the ~/.gitconfig for the rhodecode user will that update the algorithm for all git repos?

We use a pygit2/libgit2 for diffs, there's no support for diff algorithm there.
