release-note-diff-cli

A small Python script for diffing release notes without reading every line twice.

I wrote this because cloud and product release notes are long, repetitive, and just different enough month to month that skimming by eye gets old fast.

It does three things:

• computes added and removed lines
• highlights lines that look like fixes, deprecations, launches, or limits
• prints a short human-readable summary

Quick run:

python3 release_note_diff.py sample_old.txt sample_new.txt

Still intentionally simple:

• plain text in, plain text out
• no external dependencies
• no pretending this is NLP

If I kept working on it, I would probably add better grouping and maybe a way to ignore noisy sections.
