+  // This function returns an edit operation, one of "substitute", "delete",
+  // and "insert", along with an index in the source string where the edit must
+  // occur in order to arrive at the target string. If the strings are not a
+  // close match, it returns null.
+  //
+  // Two strings are considered to be a close match if they are one edit
+  // operation apart.
+  //
+  // Deletions or insertions of a contiguous range of characters from one
+  // string into the other, at the same index, are treated as a single edit.
+  // For example, "internal" and "international" are considered to be one edit
+  // apart and therefore a close match.
+
+  // A few things to note:
+  //
+  //   1) This function does not care about the format of the input strings.
+  //   For example, the caller may pass in regular expressions, where "[ab]"
+  //   and "[bc]" could be considered to be a close match, since the order
+  //   within the brackets doesn't matter. This function will still return null
+  //   for this set of inputs since they are two edits apart.
+  //
+  //   2) To be friendly to calling code that might be passing in regular
+  //   expressions, this function will simply return null if it encounters a
+  //   special character (e.g. "\", "?", "+", etc.) in the delta. For example,
+  //   given "Hello" and "Hello, how are you?", it will return null.
+  //
+  //   3) If the caller does indeed pass in regular expressions, it must make
+  //   the important assumption that the parts where two such regular
+  //   expressions may differ can always be treated as normal strings. For
+  //   example, "^https?://.*/ads" and "^https?://.*/adv" differ only in the
+  //   last character, therefore the regular expressions can safely be merged
+  //   into "^https?://.*/ad[sv]".
