  The diff output:
    - There are three types of diffs: insertions, deletions and replacements
    - Insertions:
      - An insertion/addition starts with a
        <lines>a<lines>
        followed by the lines of text 2.
      - A deletion starts with a
        <lines>d<lines>
        followed by the lines of text 1.
      - A replacement/change starts with a
        <lines>c<lines>
        followed by the lines of text 1, folowed by
        ---
        followed by the lines of text 2.
    - <lines> can be single decimal number or a range. For example:
       1
       2,3
    - The lines of text 1 are always prefixed with '< '
      If the lines of text 1 do not end with a newline char it ends with a line
      \ No newline at end
    - The lines of text 2 are always prefixed with '> '
      If the lines of text 1 do not end with a newline char it ends with a line
      \ No newline at end

  The diff output:
    - Every diff block starts with 15 stars

    - Every diff block has two parts. One for each text.
    - The first text part starts with

    - The second text part starts with
      --- StartLine,EndLine ----
    - In front of and behind each changed line there are unchanged line. These
      lines are the context.
    - At the beginning and at the end there are at least
      ContextLineCount number of unchanged lines.
    - Between two changed lines there are at most 2x ContextLineCount number of
      unchanged lines. If there are too many, the a new block is started
    - Changed lines starts with '! ', unchanged with '  '.
    - If a part contains no changed lines, its lines can be left out
