Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The output from h5diff includes groups that have no differences, which makes it hard to actually see where the differences are. The following is a small scale example, but you can imagine if I have dozens more fields and the actual difference is somewhere in the middle or near the end, it's hard to see what actually changed.
Describe the solution you'd like
Could you add an output mode that only prints the differences?
Describe alternatives you've considered
At the moment, I think the only workaround is to write a wrapper script that filters the output.
Additional context
I'm trying to add h5diff as a step to a testing framework built on top of ATS (which is also developed by LLNL). When there are differences, we want it to be easy for users to see exactly what is different.
