Is there such a thing as a git diff but for the graphical aspect?

i know i can run git diff or diffmerge on the textual representation via the D2 language.

but i wonder if it's possible to do a diff merge on the graphical representation. Esp since D2 supports bidirectional edits.

Oh I like that idea.

d2 diff a.d2 b.d2 can show 2 side by side views:

1. a.d2 but with

• everything that was deleted highlighted in red
• everything that was changed highlighted in yellow

2. b.d2 but with

• everything that was added highlighted in green
• everything that was changed highlighted in yellow

And yes, this would all be possible because of d2oracle (the API that powers bidirectional edits)

I guess this reply means, it's possible but not live yet. Am I right?

Right
