Hi, please note that expect for the header line Aspell does not care about the order of the file. It would be nice if Aspell would sort them, but if you want to use it for VCS you are free to sort the list yourself before committing. Both files are simply a header line then a plain word list. Simply sort the list and leave the header line alone. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14562423/is-there-a-way-to-ignore-header-lines-in-a-unix-sort Gives multiple ways to do this.
