  Description     : git diff extension for Excel spreadsheets

Git XL is an open-source Git command line extension for managing Excel
workbook files in Git.

The extension makes git diff work for Excel VBA (xls, xlt, xla, xlam,
xlsx, xlsm, xlsb, xltx, xltm). Git XL does not require Excel as it
works directly on the workbook file.

With Git XL installed, Git can diff Excel VBA just like any other
source code file.

----

Git XL was previously called "git-xltrail". Possibly depends on the
xlwings library:

... which is an opencore thing, but might work well enough for most
use cases (e.g. not for cloud documents) in the opensource version.
