import {getChangedFilesForRoots} from 'jest-changed-files';
getChangedFilesForRoots(['/path/to/test'], {
lastCommit: true,
withAncestor: true,
}).then(files => {
/*
{
repos: [],
changedFiles: []
}
*/
});
import {getChangedFilesForRoots} from 'jest-changed-files';
getChangedFilesForRoots(['/path/to/test'], {
changedSince: 'main',
}).then(files => {
/*
{
repos: [],
changedFiles: []
}
*/

The git-diff-apply package provides functionality to apply the changes between two commits, branches, or tags. It is similar to jest-changed-files in that it deals with changes in a repository, but it focuses on applying changes rather than just listing them.
node-diff3 is a package for three-way file merging. It compares the differences between files, which can be related to the functionality of jest-changed-files, but it goes further by attempting to merge these differences automatically.
simple-git is a light-weight interface for running git commands in any node.js application. It can be used to get a list of changed files, similar to jest-changed-files, but it also provides a full range of commands to manage Git repositories programmatically.
