;;; Commentary:

;; Provides support for font-lock, outline, navigation
;; commands, editing and various conversions as well as jumping
;; to the corresponding source file.

;; Inspired by Pavel Machek's patch-mode.el (<pavel@@atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz>)
;; Some efforts were spent to have it somewhat compatible with XEmacs'
;; diff-mode as well as with compilation-minor-mode

;; Bugs:

;; - Reverse doesn't work with normal diffs.

;; Todo:

;; - Improve `diff-add-change-log-entries-other-window',
;;   it is very simplistic now.
;;
;; - Add a `delete-after-apply' so C-c C-a automatically deletes hunks.
;;   Also allow C-c C-a to delete already-applied hunks.
;;
;; - Try `diff <file> <hunk>' to try and fuzzily discover the source location
;;   of a hunk.  Show then the changes between <file> and <hunk> and make it
;;   possible to apply them to <file>, <hunk-src>, or <hunk-dst>.
;;   Or maybe just make it into a ".rej to diff3-markers converter".
;;   Maybe just use `wiggle' (by Neil Brown) to do it for us.
;;
;; - in diff-apply-hunk, strip context in replace-match to better
;;   preserve markers and spacing.
;; - Handle `diff -b' output in context->unified.
