## Known Limitations
- `vim-fugitive` syntax "flashing": diffs.nvim hooks into the
`FileType fugitive` event triggered by vim-fugitive, at which point the buffer
is preliminarily painted. The buffer is then re-painted after `debounce_ms`
milliseconds, causing an unavoidable visual "flash" even when
`debounce_ms = 0`.

- **Conflicting diff plugins**: `diffs.nvim` may not interact well with other
plugins that modify diff highlighting. Known plugins that may conflict:
- [`diffview.nvim`](https://github.com/sindrets/diffview.nvim) - provides its
own diff highlighting and conflict resolution UI
- [`mini.diff`](https://github.com/echasnovski/mini.diff) - visualizes buffer
differences with its own highlighting system
- [`gitsigns.nvim`](https://github.com/lewis6991/gitsigns.nvim) - generally
compatible, but both plugins modifying line highlights may produce
unexpected results
- [`git-conflict.nvim`](https://github.com/akinsho/git-conflict.nvim) -
conflict marker highlighting may overlap with `diffs.nvim`
