Reviewing pull requests with complex refactorings can be challenging. SemanticDiff helps by detecting moved code blocks and other typical refactorings. Save time by directly noticing that all changes belong to a rename of the same variable and that the moved code contains no other changes.

Pull requests should be small, but sometimes this is easier said than done. Unfortunately the GitHub interface becomes sluggish with a large amount of changes. SemanticDiff helps you out by showing you the changes file-by-file and providing a minimap to make sure you never get lost.

  • Review file-by-file
  • Minimap showing changes
