This application patches a file using the diff generated by gumtree-spoon-ast-diff. It is similar to the patch utility in Linux except diffmin also aims to minimise the resultant diff between the two files by keeping only the AST changes.

Diffmin is currently in its rudimentary stages, so we are not expecting a pull request from outside contributors as there are not many features to work on as of now. We will update the instructions when we feel that we have enough issues to tackle. In that case, we would encourage contributions from anyone.
Internally, we do follow some guidelines before submitting a pull request.
- PR title aptly describes the changes proposed.
- PR is coupled with a description, so it makes the process of reviewing easier.
- PR addresses a single thing, e.g. a single feature or a bug.
