Thanks for trying aider and filing this issue. In case you haven't seen it, there's a long writeup about aider's current support for unified diffs:

Thanks, maybe I should just give it another go then. When did aider switch to this unified diff format?

[paul-gauthier]

Aider implemented support for the unified diff edit format back in December. It currently uses this edit format for the GPT-4 Turbo models. Aider uses different edit formats for different models, choosing the one which performs best for the specific model. There's some more detail on this here:

Ok thanks, I believe I was using GPT-4 (non-turbo) last time so will try turbo.
