I'm talking about using a diff tool to understand merge conflicts with more context. I'm not talking about the process of merging. I've done some hellacious merges and never found that to be the case.
Why not use git locally? You can branch and merge and commit to your hearts content.īecause diffing conflicts in a merge is painful as hell with the git cmdline tools.
I warmly recommend Beyond Compare for that - or WinMerge if you prefer a free (but worse) tool. Wait wait wait DiffMerge is free now imago try it On Windows, you might even use a GUI one.
#WINMERGE VS BEYOND COMPARE FULL#
I have also used a freebie called Diffmerge that is descent but not full featured. Maybe I'm confused about what we're talking about here, but I use diff and git, if applicableīut diff doesn't have that GUI goodness that Visual Studio users crave still at least it is available in the GNUWin32 project: ^^Yes there is a 3-way diff too (for TFS) sxsxs and sxs+under I use the one built into eclipse, works pretty well, recursive directories, revision diff management, etc. Noen does the VS12 diff tool do a 3-way merge? I use SourceGear Diffmerge most of the time. Though honestly I've stopped using either now that diff is built into VS12
We use BeyondCompare at work IMO it is a great compare toolīeyondCompare is pretty much the bees knees. Been looking at Araxis and BeyondCompare. What do you people use as a file and directory comparison tool? I've been using Winmerge, but it's too dumb for my tastes at times.
