Commits

v2.0.0 - August 7th, 2015

Compatibility notes:

this.removeEmpty is now called automatically for all instances. If this is not desired, this may be overridden on a per instance basis.
The library has been refactored to use some ES6 features. The external APIs should remain the same, but bower projects that directly referenced the repository will now have to point to the components/jsdiff repository.
