Disclaimer

Note This plugin is a refactored and updated verion of an ammazing plugin https://github.com/zsong/diffy which is seems depricated long ago.

Note None of the team stand behind Kaleidoscope app have paid me any amount for being a part of this plugin behind the scene. Though they were so kind to provide me a code snippet that let me integrate with their tool in a smooth way.

Note Therefore any other diffing tool are more than welcome to become integrated on the same terms as they were — by PR to that repo.
