[PATCHv2 23/25] diff.c: color moved lines differently, plain mode

From

Date
Jun 23, 2017, 01:29 UTC

Add the 'plain' mode for move detection of code. This omits the checking for adjacent blocks, so it is not as useful. If you have a lot of the same blocks moved in the same patch, the 'Zebra' would end up slow as it is O(n^2) (n is number of same blocks). So this may be useful there and is generally easy to add
