Git has nice colored diffs, like this:

Perforce does not:

A simple script can remedy this:

Here’s the script:

Simply drop it somewhere in your $PATH and use it like so:

p4 diff | p4c.rb

You can find it in my one-offs directory (it’s called p4c.rb). We recently switched from subversion to perforce (definitely not my choice, I pushed for git), and so far it’s awful. I am definitely not a fan. This makes it a little better.

You can now check out the files from the NSM-Console github page, as well as download a tarball of the latest source anytime. If you’d like to check out the code to take a look, you can easily clone the repo with:

git clone git://github.com/dakrone/nsm-console.git

I really like git more than subversion, and I’m glad that any nsm-console changes that I check in aren’t going to break the version of nsm-console in Hex.
