YAML gets cleaner diffs when you edit it.
- TeMPOraL 3y agoThat's more of a problem with diff tools, though, which like almost all tooling and even programming languages, make the mistake of treating code as plain text.
- emodendroket 3y agoOK, well, if you want to invent a new VC tool that can parse arbitrary languages into a syntax tree and make a useful diff and then convince everyone to use it instead of git then maybe I’ll stop using YAML.
- MenhirMike 3y agoSemantic Diff tools already exist. Haven't looked at ones that specifically support YAML, but e.g., graphtage claims to do so.
