Regarding visual diffing: "The delta between source code commits can only be represented textually; graphical palettes are not designed to represent change over time."
I would think visual systems might be in a better spot to visualize change over time. Some of Tufte's diagrams have interesting ideas of how this could be represented statically, but turning static code diffs into illustrated animations might even be better than code diffing...
