It's nice to ask for diffs, then you can see exactly what's changing.
Wouldn't it be better to ask the LLM to use a diff tool instead of asking it look at the text directly?
Appreciate your input! Totally agree—a quick diff would make this way more useful. Would you prefer a natural language summary of the changes, or an actual code diff?
sameI need something like a web diff
Surely not diffs offered by the git ecosystem?
+ it shows you a diff with the ability to revert individual changes in code

I like the github diff view, definitely makes it easier to spot the more minute differences when testing smaller prompt changes.
Maybe someone could make a tool to generate such a diff automatically.
They need to implement a git diff...
