True, but without some cursorary comparison we wouldn't know if we
dropped a feature or bug fix.

Unfortunately, some of these sources don't have a commit history.
So comparison could be;
- convert line endings,
- autoformatting, (only for the purposes of comparison, as divergence
in code format or style is a really useful indicator of change or
mixed authorship),
- recursive diff(1) or visualisation tools like meld.
