intentdiff v0.1: structure-aware Git diff for noisy code reviews

[harivilasp]

intentdiff v0.1 is live.

Normal diffs show changed text. intentdiff tries to show review intent: formatting-only edits, moved code, probable renames, import reorders, comment/doc edits, and meaningful changes.

Install:

cargo install intentdiff --locked
npm install -g intentdiff
python -m pip install intentdiff

Looking for feedback, especially fixture examples where a normal diff is painful because formatting, movement, renames, and real edits are mixed together.

Important limitation: intentdiff does not claim runtime behavioral equivalence. It uses conservative classifications like formatting_only, moved_unchanged, probable_rename, literal_changed, textual_change, and unknown.
