Hi Folks,

Before I reinvent the wheel, does anyone have a diff viewer for the
updates per agency/gtfs feed?

Yes I know it's merely a case of getting the old one, untarring, then
doing a diff. Just wondered if anyone already had this automated

I'm mainly interested in stops/shapes -- ie any new / changed routes

Hello Andrew

I'm developing a GTFS feed archive tool that may be useful to you, it determines which of a list of feeds have changed since a given date and creates an archive of them.

It does not show data differences between versions of the feeds, but could be used as a front end to a system which does, or this feature could be added.

The tool is in early beta so if you're interested in using it I would love to have your feedback! Please feel free to contact me via edward.groth AT gmail.com

Hi Andrew

I've developed http://transitfeeds.com, which catalogues and archives a ton of GTFS feeds.

It doesn't quite have a specific diff tool in it yet, but it is something I work towards as I get spare time
