YAML meta data ignored #10

Open inventionate opened 4 years ago

Thank you for your great package. Unfortunately there seems to be a problem with YAML blocks for meta information. I defined my title there, but it is ignored when creating the diff file (warning pushed and default empty title inserted) . I can't pass additional arguments either. Can this please be fixed? It is very unfavorable, if the title is not considered.

Are you expecting it to display a diff of the metadata blocks, or to just retain the metadata of the most recent document?

Thank you very much for the response. My main concern is retain the metadata, although there are certainly cases where a comparison of the metadata is useful, if that's possible.
