Runtime behavior diffs for pull requests.
About RealDiff
RealDiff finds runtime behavior changes that ordinary source review misses .
It builds two Git revisions, observes their tests, learns a noise baseline from three base runs, and reports the first changed behavior in each call tree. A source diff tells you what was edited. RealDiff tells you what the edit did, including effects in files the pull request never touched.
List.Sort is not stable; OrderBy is. In the included demo, that one-line infrastructure change alters an unedited pricing engine:

Prerequisites for this .NET demo: Git, .NET 8 SDK, and PowerShell 7. Java analysis additionally requires a JDK and the repository's Maven/Gradle wrapper or corresponding system tool; Node analysis requires Node.js and the package manager selected by its lockfile.
The proof creates a temporary proposed-change tree, changes only SortingExtensions.cs , runs the base twice plus the change once, and writes findings.json . It verifies:
