If you want to see differences at the record (line) level, try:

% diff --old-line-format=%L --new-line-format=%L
--unchanged-line-format="" data1.csv data2.csv > diff.csv

diff.csv should end up with none of the lines that are identical in the
two source files, and only contain the lines that differ.

You can the load diff.csv into MySQL.
