+# Various formats will be parsed into a VERSION and an optional PACKAGE_NAME, where

+# must be a Cargo-style SemVer Version (must have at least major.minor.patch).

+# If PACKAGE_NAME is specified, then the announcement will be for that
+# package (erroring out if it doesn't have the given version or isn't cargo-dist-able).
+#
+# If PACKAGE_NAME isn't specified, then the announcement will be for all
+# (cargo-dist-able) packages in the workspace with that version (this mode is
+# intended for workspaces with only one dist-able package, or with all dist-able

+#
+# If you push multiple tags at once, separate instances of this workflow will
+# spin up, creating an independent announcement for each one. However, GitHub
+# will hard limit this to 3 tags per commit, as it will assume more tags is a
+# mistake.

+The goal of this package is to be a drop-in replacement for the [diffutils commands](https://www.gnu.org/software/diffutils/) (diff, cmp, diff3, sdiff) in Rust.
 
 Based on the incomplete diff generator in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/tools/compiletest/src/runtest.rs, and made to be compatible with GNU's diff and patch tools.
