I had a third attempt at porting difftastic from Dijkstra to A*, and I've eventually concluded that A* just isn't worth it for the implementation complexity. I had fun writing it up though, and I've even attempted ASCII art for building intuitions:

I've released difftastic 0.68! A smaller update, but still worth upgrading: * Improved Bash, C, Go, Lua, Nix, Perl, Python, Rust, Scala, Swift and YAML parsing. * Minor display and git compatibility fixes.

@friend It seems like people find Zig comptime easier to reason about, hence the interest in introducing it to other languages. That seems worth something. I still prefer Lisp/Clojure style macros over safer Scheme/Rust macros. Lisp macro implementations are closer to typical code.
