I'm setting up a tracker for http://visir.is (a Icelandic news site).
I've noticed that when changes are done on headlines, their system makes new urls.
The urls are made up of these elements:
http://visir.is/g//< HEADLINE >
To view the article the < HEADLINE > part is reduntant.
To get around it I made some changes to allow for a regex to be applied to a url from the rss feed. See here:
https://github.com/pallih/diffengine/commit/0519f3114e0aebbb4c428152a1fa3894d6c9c769
This makes the url checked: http://visir.is/g/ so subsequent changes to the headline are picked up, and not stored as a new article.
I'm not sure introducing a config variable is appropriate for the project, but at least my solution is there, if anyone needs it.
