SoftBestsdelta
A syntax-highlighting pager for git and diff output that makes code review easier to read.
Best for
Developers who review diffs in the terminal and want line numbers, colors, and side-by-side views.
Why it deserves attention
delta turns plain diff output into syntax-highlighted, line-numbered pages, with side-by-side view, word-level changes, hunk headers, and navigation keys. It plugs into git as a pager and also works with ripgrep, grep, and plain diff, and it is MIT-licensed with steady releases. Configuration lives in gitconfig, so it travels with your dotfiles. It only changes how diffs look, not what Git does, and very large diffs still take time to render.
