Remove unmaintained dependency go-difflib

Open Crevil opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

The package github.com/pmezard/go-difflib is as of this commit no longer maintained: https://github.com/pmezard/go-difflib/commit/1ef1646f464bff6853dfa4c32750886762dc023a

Maybe we could move the used functionality into this repo and stop depending on the difflib package all together?

The functions used are difflib.GetUnifiedDiffString() and difflib.SplitLines().

Is there any update on this.

Who will maintain that imported code?

What are the issues in difflib code that need fixes?

So far, as a maintainer, I don't see any advantages compared to the status quo.
