git - When should I not use patience diff? -

-

what `git diff --patience` for? explains how patience diff may better myers (the default one).

is there reason against using default?

name hints may noticeably slower, speed issues mentioned in examples of different results produced standard (myers), minimal, patience , histogram diff algorithms running time never issue me - real problem massive files or other pathological situations?

patience algorithm has poor result cases (like https://gist.github.com/roryokane/79b8ebcb3813ebd934c4) @ least in experience better on typical source code diff (cases https://gist.github.com/roryokane/6f9061d3a60c1ba41237) - though entirely own observation, of noticed result may placebo.

Decoding a Python 2 `tempfile` with python-future -

i'm attempting write python 2/3 compatible routine fetch csv file, decode latin_1 unicode , feed csv.dictreader in robust, scalable manner. for python 2/3 support, i'm using python-future including imporing open builtins , , importing unicode_literals consistent behaviour i'm hoping handle exceptionally large files spilling disk, using tempfile.spooledtemporaryfile i'm using io.textiowrapper handle decoding latin_1 encoding before feeding dictreader this works fine under python 3. the problem textiowrapper expects wrap stream conforms bufferediobase . unfortunately under python 2, although have imported python 3-style open , vanilla python 2 tempfile.spooledtemporaryfile still of course returns python 2 cstringio.stringo , instead of python 3 io.bytesio required textiowrapper . i can think of these possible approaches: wrap python 2 cstringio.stringo python 3-style io.bytesio . i'm not sure how approach - need write such wrapper or 1 ex
