json-diff 1.2.8

Generates diff between two JSON files

Compares two JSON files (http://json.org) and generates a new JSON file with the result. Allows exclusion of some keys from the comparison, or in other way to include only some keys.

The project’s website is at https://fedorahosted.org/json_diff/ Patches and pull requests are welcome, but please keep the script compatible with python 2.4.
