to Diff Match Patch

Title pretty much says it all.

Does anyone have a tutorial on how to use the C# portion?

What level are you having problems with?
To start with you'll need a C# programming environment. A common one
is Microsoft Visual Studio. I use Mono and NUnit since they are free.
Here's my compile/test script for the Macintosh:

cd ~/Documents/diff-match-patch/csharp/
rm DiffMatchPatchTest.dll

echo "Compiling..."
gmcs -t:library -r:System.Web.dll -r:nunit.framework.dll
DiffMatchPatchTest.cs DiffMatchPatch.cs
echo "...done."

read -n 1 -p "Press any key to continue..."

echo

nunit-console DiffMatchPatchTest.dll
read -n 1 -p "Press any key to continue..."
