--- layout: post title: diffoscope 251 released author: Chris Lamb --- The diffoscope maintainers are pleased to announce the release of diffoscope version `251`. This version includes the following changes: ``` * If the equivalent of `file -i` returns text/plain, fallback to comparing this file as a text file. This especially helps when file(1) miscategorises text files as some esoteric type. (Closes: Debian:#1053668) * Update copyright years. ``` You find out more by [visiting the project homepage](https://diffoscope.org).
