Overall stats for gedcom diff #200

Open nev7n opened 5 years ago

A nice feature would be to give overall stats in gedcom diff.

For example:

number of people each gedcom
number identical matches
number partial matches
number unique in left
number unique in right
average similarity

Yep, that's a good idea. Especially when transferring details from different trees it can be used as a progress indicator. And who doesn't love stats!? 😄

My Dad and I are both working on the same family tree, but I'm using ancestry and he's using a desktop package + findmypast so we're now using gedcomdiff to help synchronise our efforts.

That's great to hear because thats the exact use case I built it for. I hope you don't mind, I've added you to the gedcom-app gitter since it's a better place to chat than issues.
