25 * The basic idea of patience diff is to find lines that are unique in
26 * both files. These are intuitively the ones that we want to see as
29 * The maximal ordered sequence of such line pairs (where ordered means
30 * that the order in the sequence agrees with the order of the lines in
31 * both files) naturally defines an initial set of common lines.
33 * Now, the algorithm tries to extend the set of common lines by growing
34 * the line ranges where the files have identical lines.
36 * Between those common lines, the patience diff algorithm is applied
37 * recursively, until no unique line pairs can be found; these line ranges
38 * are handled by the well-known Myers algorithm.

44 * This is a hash mapping from line hash to line numbers in the first and
52 * 0 = unused entry, 1 = first line, 2 = second, etc.
53 * line2 is NON_UNIQUE if the line is not unique
54 * in either the first or the second file.
56 unsigned long line1, line2;
58 * "next" & "previous" are used for the longest common
60 * initially, "next" reflects only the order in file1.
