This skill enables you to quickly identify which files have changed between two points in a DataLad dataset's history, surfacing file-level state changes without inspecting content.
Provide two revisions or a range to compare, then ask the tool to run datalad diff to display the results.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
To compare file changes in a DataLad dataset, provide two revisions, commits, or branches to run datalad diff, which reports added, modified, or deleted files without displaying content diffs.
Yes, datalad diff supports working-tree versus specific-commit comparisons, allowing you to track uncommitted file-level state changes against a known good revision in your DataLad dataset.
A DataLad diff shows file-level state differences, surfacing which files were added, modified, or deleted across revisions or branches while omitting the actual content diffs for quick auditing.
Yes, a .datalad directory must be present for context-aware guidance, as the tool relies on it to locate the dataset and can indicate when the dataset is not found.
No, datalad diff operates strictly in read-only mode to compute and report file-level changes across revisions, commits, or branches without modifying your DataLad dataset.
The best way to track added or deleted files across DataLad branches is to provide a revision range to datalad diff, which computes file-level state differences without inspecting content.
