Am I missing something? Those diffs look identical. Edit: got it. Thanks!

  The second one shows the changed lines' context as a method definition "def tickets_as_html" instead of the mostly-useless "class TicketPdf".

  The header that indicates context. Default: @@ -24,7 +24,7 @@ class TicketPdf Configured: @@ -24,7 +24,7 @@ def tickets_as_html

    Ah, thanks. I scanned those so many times but I never caught it. I think I'm used to not reading the header because, as this points out, it isn't always useful.

      I use these a lot when someone sends a patch, I'll use `vim -t <function>` to jump to the definition of <function> to better understand the change. (Where <function> is from the header of the hunk.)

  The second diff identifies the target of the changes more precisely - method vs class
• renox 6y ago
  In the first diff after the @@ there's a reference to the enclosing class, in the second diff it's a reference to the enclosing method. Which could help perhaps if the methods are moved?

  What this really needed was a diff for their own example
