 Priority:  normal                 |   Milestone:       
Component:  changeset view         |     Version:  devel
 Severity:  normal                 |   Keywords:  diff changeset utf-16  |  
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
 When diffing between a utf-8<>utf-16 file or utf-16<>utf-16 file it does
 not highlight the inline changes correctly.  For instance between two
 utf-8 files if a single character has changed it will show that single
 character difference.  However if any utf-16 file comes into play it shows
 the change as spanning across the entire line for both (in 'dark'
 red/green) versus the single character.

 I've tried to track this down myself with little luck i'll keep trying.
 If I do figure it out i'll update this ticket however I'm hoping one of
 the developers here will have a quick idea as to what it could be.  If you
 require any further information from me or testing of patches i'll be glad
 to do so.
