[diffoscope] Schema of diffoscope JSON output

[Aman Sharma]

Hi,


I want to know if there is a schema for JSON output from diffoscope. I have understood that it always contains 'source1' and 'source2'. However, they can either mean the actual source files that are being diff-ed or the name of the tool that is run on the files before being diff-ed.

Example where source is a file path.

{
"source1": "/target/reference/dev.langchain4j/langchain4j-vearch-0.26.0.pom",
"source2": "/langchain4j-vearch/pom.xml",
"unified_diff": "[REMOVED FOR BREVITY]"
}

Example where source in a tool name.

{
"source1": "zipinfo {}",
"source2": "zipinfo {}",
"unified_diff": "[REMOVED FOR BREVITY]"
},
