Hi @jiangxin

As the title described, what does diff dirver mean in Git? It's the sum of all diff configuration variable like diff.algorithm, diff.context, diff.external, diff.tool, diff.wordRegex etc. ?

Thanks!

A diff driver defines an external program which helps to generate diff output for a certain files.

BTW, this question has nothing to do with this project.
