Request 843137 accepted
- Name the installed binary `delta`, as upstream calls it, as
renaming causes various breakages (e.g. bash completions) and
inconsitencies with upstream documentation and usage.
Add Conflict with sccs, which also provides a binary called
`delta` instead.

@jubalh I'd like to have a second pair of eyes on this one, could you please have a look?
Sure! I think "Provides: delta" needs to be removed. I don't think thats needed/right. The conflicts is correct. Maybe it would be good to notify upstream about this and ask them to rename the binary? Maybe "gdelta"?
Thanks. A colleague suggested Provides: delta to be able to do zypper in delta as well. Not sure about it myself.
Upstream is aware of this name clash, and are not open for renaming, apparently, but likes to go this route (https://github.com/dandavison/delta/issues/26)
@jubalh So, judging from the upstreams response, we merge this SR?
Yep! I'm still not sure about the provides though but don't strong opinion (since I'm not sure :))
