Enum DiffAlgorithm 

pub enum DiffAlgorithm {
    Histogram,
    Myers,
    MyersMinimal,
}

Diff algorithm used by imara-diff.

All three are wired and behave identically with respect to hunk kinds; they differ in how they choose where hunk boundaries land for ambiguous edits.

Variants

Histogram

Git’s default since 2.7. Best general-purpose results on code; preferred for Lattice.

Myers

The classic Eugene Myers algorithm. Slightly weaker results on rebraced code; included for completeness.

MyersMinimal

Myers run with the --minimal post-process — finds the smallest possible diff at extra CPU cost. Use when you want the tightest output and don’t mind a slower recompute. Mapped to imara_diff::Algorithm::MyersMinimal.
