Description

Compute differences, matches, and patches for plain text in Python applications. It helps editors, sync tools, and merge workflows understand how text changed and how to apply updates.

This is a text algorithm library, not a full editor. Patch application should be reviewed when data is important, because conflicting edits or wrong assumptions can lose or distort user text.
