Features
WinMerge is highly useful for determining what has changed between project versions, and then merging changes between versions. WinMerge can be used as an external differencing/merging tool or as a standalone application.
In addition, WinMerge has many helpful supporting features that make comparing, synchronising, and merging as easy and useful as possible:
The file types addressed by individual file comparison apps varies, but may include text, symbols, images, audio, or video. This category of software tool is often called 'file comparison' or 'diff tool', but those effectively are equivalent terms — where the term 'diff' is more commonly associated with the Unix diff utility. Compare and Synchronize Lite (CSL) is an utility that lets recursively compare of multiple folders side-by-side, and synchronize folders contents. The utility helps keeping files synchronized between a desktop & laptop or between multiple drives on you desktop and is a very fast method of backing up critical directories.
