Difftastic 0.71 is out! This is a polish release, still well worth upgrading:
* A ton of performance improvements, especially for nasty corner cases.
* Improved C++, Dockerfile, Haskell, JavaScript, Makefile, Perl, Ruby, Rust, Scala and TypeScript.
Today in cursed C code:
void foo(int32_t int32_t, int32_t bar);
Since C puts identifiers and typedefs in the same namespace, this code just produces a confusing compile error about the type of bar!
(This occurred in some real code after macro expansion.)
