[Feature Request] Support diffing of the actual worksheet content #61

Thanks for the tool. I was wondering, if it is still on the roadmap to support diffing the content of the actual worksheet as noted in this article.

It would be great, if we had a meaningful diff for the content of the worksheet (no VBA).

We had to take a step back here as we wanted to make things truly open source, see: https://github.com/xlwings/git-xl/issues/57 so it's not something we plan to add in the immediate future. In the meantime, you can always try out https://www.xltrail.com that will show you the diffs of the sheets.

Okay. Thanks for the info. Should we keep this issue open then?

I'll close it for now, we can always revisit later. Thanks!
