This is intended to look like this:

Unfortunately we currently get pretty confusing diffs from the diffr-lib library -- mookid/diffr#27. I really don't want to do character-based or line-based diffs, and I haven't been able to find a better word-based diff library so far.

For now this is on hold until there is a better diff library for Rust.

@dtolnay do you think it would be possible to merge this as is? Even this not-perfect diff is a way better than no diff at all

All the diff libraries were bad so I implemented a new one in https://github.com/dtolnay/dissimilar and used it for #42.
