SharePatch turns git diffs into clean, shareable links with side-by-side views for fast review anywhere.
Paste text, upload and edit patch files, or import URL-hosted diffs and get a stable unlisted link in one step.
Whenever I received a git diff that was more than 20 lines long, I usually had to apply it locally to understand it. It was a hassle to do, everytime. I wanted a way to see the changes online without applying them locally.
So I built sharepatch, to help me share git diff patches online, just like you would do on pastebin but with built-in support for line by line, side by side diffs along with support to reverse the diff.

@wokepadia Super relatable for code reviews. How does sharepatch handle massive diffs (like, 1000+ lines) or binary changes?

This is a neat idea. Git diffs are easy to share, but not always easy to actually review unless you pull them locally or drop them into the right tooling. Turning that into a clean browser-based review flow feels genuinely useful, especially for quick collaboration.
Curious, are people mostly using this for AI-generated patches, teammate reviews, or just their own faster inspection?
@akshay_kumar_hireid Mostly their own faster inspection. This removes the cognitive load required to parse a git diff in plain text.

oh this is nice. getting a random diff and then having to apply it locally just to understand what changed is way more annoying than it should be. making it viewable in a clean browser diff feels super practical.
curious, what kind of diff gets shared the most here right now, small quick fixes or bigger patch files?
@unhappychoice Thanks for the report! I fixed the 502 errors, can you share what error do you see on the CAPTCHA side, I'm able to successfully create a patch link.

@wokepadia Also, valid unified diff is rejected with "Patch text is not a valid unified git diff" error.

@nayan_surya98 Thanks! Medium to large patches since it is easy to share very small patches directly with text.
Heads up: the site was returning 502 earlier, the CAPTCHA shows a test environment warning, and the blog link is 404. Who is upvoting this?
Still CAPTCHA is down. unable to use
