## About
A tool to show graphical "Diffs" or differences between schematics
## Usage
schdiff <schematic1>.sch <schematic2>.sch
## Use with Git
1. Create a .gitattribute file in the project root with the line \*.sch
-crlf -diff. This tells git not to try text-diffing schematics.
2. See [this
patch](http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.cad.geda.user/42179) for
schdiff usage in gEDA 1.9.X. (If link is broken search the mailing
list archive for "schdiff and gEDA/gaf 1.9"
3. See [this patch](http://bugs.launchpad.net/geda/+bug/904633) if
schdiff shows missing symbols when used with git
