+// Diff returns an anchored diff of the two texts old and new
+// in the “unified diff” format. If old and new are identical,
+// Diff returns a nil slice (no output).
+//
+// Unix diff implementations typically look for a diff with
+// the smallest number of lines inserted and removed,
+// which can in the worst case take time quadratic in the
+// number of lines in the texts. As a result, many implementations
+// either can be made to run for a long time or cut off the search
+// after a predetermined amount of work.
+//
+// In contrast, this implementation looks for a diff with the
+// smallest number of “unique” lines inserted and removed,
+// where unique means a line that appears just once in both old and new.
+// We call this an “anchored diff” because the unique lines anchor
+// the chosen matching regions. An anchored diff is usually clearer
+// than a standard diff, because the algorithm does not try to
+// reuse unrelated blank lines or closing braces.
+// The algorithm also guarantees to run in O(n log n) time
+// instead of the standard O(n²) time.
+//
+// Some systems call this approach a “patience diff,” named for
+// the “patience sorting” algorithm, itself named for a solitaire card game.
+// We avoid that name for two reasons. First, the name has been used
+// for a few different variants of the algorithm, so it is imprecise.
+// Second, the name is frequently interpreted as meaning that you have
+// to wait longer (to be patient) for the diff, meaning that it is a slower algorithm,
+// when in fact the algorithm is faster than the standard one.
