Comparing files

You can examine the similarities and differences of two file versions from the History dialog box. The versions can be writable, and do not require a common ancestor. Comparisons are relative to the second version selected.

Procedure

  1. Right-click over the file you want to compare, and select History. To find a file, see Finding an object.
  2. In the History dialog box, click the first file you want to compare, then press Ctrl and click the second. Both are highlighted.
  3. On the History dialog box toolbar, click compare icon.

    The Compare dialog box shows the differences.
