How to use on Windows about ydiff HOT 4 CLOSED

It is installed as script with name ydiff (without extension).
I'd be possible to run it with python.exe ydiff, but it seems Windows is not supported atm:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "ydiff", line 7, in <module>
    sys.exit(ydiff.main())
  File "C:\APPs\Development\WinPython\python-3.8.0\lib\site-packages\ydiff.py", line 794, in main
    signal.signal(signal.SIGPIPE, signal.SIG_DFL)
AttributeError: module 'signal' has no attribute 'SIGPIPE'

See #81.

In short: apply this patch: https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/ymattw/ydiff/pull/81.patch

from ydiff.

To install ydiff command into git:

1. Make sure that python directory is in PATH
2. In directory git\usr\bin\ create file git-ydiff:

   #!/usr/bin/env python
   
   import sys
   import ydiff
   sys.exit(ydiff.main())

3. All is done!
   Run git ydiff

from ydiff.

ydiff 1.1 outputs much like you posted above. I believe the patch you advertised earlier should be applied to roll out 1.2, huh?

Ydiff is never declared supporting Windows. I see the "'ydiff' is not recognized as an internal or external command" problem is already answered, so going to close this. The SIGPIPE problem is tracked in #81.

Truly sorry for not able to answer earlier.
