Overview
rstdiff takes two reStructuredText documents as input, does a structural comaprison on them and produces an annotated result highlighting the changes. rstdiff “understands” reStructuredText and therefore is able to care for the subtleties of such a comparison the result is usually much more useful than a plain source diff.
The result is then written by a Docutils writer. Use the –writer option to select a writer for the result.
Installation
rstdiff uses the standard Distutils package. Thus the installation is done with something like:
python setup.py install
