Thanks for making this package.

Minor issue though, currently it's not configured to be recognized properly by programs written in Python.

Currently Python programs state: pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'icdiff' distribution was not found and is required by...

The following changes fixed the issue for me:

 pkgname=icdiff
 pkgver=1.9.4
-pkgrel=1
+pkgrel=2
 pkgdesc="Improved colored diff"
 arch=('any')
 depends=('python')

Please let me know if the changes I have suggested are incorrect as I am currently a Python novice. Thanks.

6Great package, thx a lot for providing this here @mtorromeo. There is a little error in the git-icdiff script, which already has been patched in upstream's master branch :

• https://github.com/jeffkaufman/icdiff/pull/140
• https://github.com/jeffkaufman/icdiff/commit/61be5fd1921453bb0c384eb6049783236f372f6b#diff-2e58e5c884d4e089fa743767be638c3e

Since it's just a small fix, could u pls consider to apply this or something similar to the PKGBUILD :

diff --git i/PKGBUILD w/PKGBUILD

EDIT Thx for the update :)

16 releases in 8 days is a bit much...
This package cannot keep up with that but I'm going to update it every once in a while

Awesome package, thank you for submitting it! I might be wrong but can it be so this package is outdated? icdiff homepage and tags at github suggest that the most recent version is 1.6.0.
