pascal diff¶

Show which packages and apps have changed since a git ref.

pascal diff [--since <REF>]

Flags¶

Flag	Default	Description
`--since REF`	latest git tag	Git ref (tag, branch, commit SHA) to compare against

Behaviour¶

Uses git2 to find all files changed between REF and HEAD
Maps changed file paths back to workspace bricks
Also reports apps that transitively depend on changed packages

Output¶

  Changes since 'v0.2.0'

  ◈ Changed bricks:
    ◆ cart     [package]

  ◈ Apps affected by changed packages:
    ▶ storefront  [app — transitive]

Examples¶

# Compare against latest tag (default)
pascal diff

# Compare against a specific tag
pascal diff --since v0.1.0

# Compare against a branch
pascal diff --since origin/main

# Compare against a commit SHA
pascal diff --since abc1234

Use in CI¶

# In a pull request workflow:
pascal diff --since origin/main

Combined with pascal test --changed:

pascal test --changed --since origin/main

Note

pascal diff requires the workspace to be inside a git repository. It exits with an error if no git repo is found.
