[Qa-jenkins-dev] Bug#865124: jenkins.debian.org: reproducible builds: save diffoscope json output

[Ximin Luo]

Package: jenkins.debian.org
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Since 83 diffoscope supports a --json format output that can be read back into
another instance of diffoscope later. This allows people to experiment with
generating different format outputs, using different settings such as higher
limits, or even their local custom presenters that they haven't released yet,
testing them with "real" output that is hard to make up manually.
